Gaither Vocal Band - Sow Mercy lyrics

rate me

I can see her now, her weathered skin

Old straw hat and crooked grin

And she said child, let's make this garden grow.

Let's till the soil, and pull some weeds

And here's your bag of precious seeds

'Cause grandma's got a secret you should know

You always reap exactly what you sow

(Chorus)

Sow mercy

Sow grace

Sow kindness

Sow faith

Words are like water, sprinkled with love

You will harvest all your heart's been dreaming of

Sow mercy

We knelt right there and she took my hand

That patch of dirt was Holy land

And she said child I learned this long ago

Oh, you can bless or curse

You can live or die

You choose the crop you want in life

That's the greatest secret Grandma knows

You always reap exactly what you sow

Repeat Chorus

'Cause one day God forbid, you act a fool

And fall down hard and fast, 'cause life is cruel

If you ever reached to help a friend

A hand you held might lift you up again

What goes around comes back around you know

You always reap exactly what you sow

Repeat Chorus
