1
Sowing the seed by the daylight fair, Sowing the seed by the noontide glare, Sowing the seed by the fading light, Sowing the seed in the solemn night; Oh, what shall the harvest be?
2
Sowing the seed by the falling light, Sowing the seed in the solemn night, Sowing the seed of a tarnished name, Sowing the seed of eternal shame; Oh, what shall the harvest be?
3
Sowing the seed with an aching heart, Sowing the seed while the tear-drops start, Sowing in hope till the reapers come, Gladly to gather the harvest home; Oh, what shall the harvest be?
C
Chorus
Sown in the darkness or sown in the light, Sown in our weakness or sown in our might; Gathered in time or eternity, Sure, ah! sure will the harvest be.
