Seeds of Life
A seed lies dormant in its place
Content to rest before the race
And in its time, it will rise high
Peek thru the ground, toward the sky
Foundation laid with roots and limb
Both trees and flowers, leaf and stem
It blooms, to come in colors bright
Shine forth each day, then rest by night.
The seed’s the same for all mankind
Twill bloom and die, but do not mind
It is the joy while we are here
That makes each moment, Oh so dear!
We are like flowers in this land
Allowed to bloom by Gods own hand
And when your final days are spent
When eyes are dull, and bodies bent
Know that you will once again bloom
In Gods own brilliant garden room
Where souls will rest, and peace abound
And seeds of life again be found!
