Worship – January 28, 2018 – 4th Sunday after Epiphany

Guest Speaker today will be Chaplain Bob Sinnett

Hear Our Prayer:

God scatters the seeds of reconciliation and love, and waits….

So much of it lands on flat pathways or rocky roads and won’t take root….

God scatters the seeds of healing and hope, and waits….

Shallowness and fear claim the seeds and they cannot live.

God scatters the seeds of redemption and peace, and waits….

These are the places of deep growth where the seed will cast down strong roots.

Welcome this day to a seed-scattering station!

May our hearts be the rich soil in which God’s love takes root. AMEN.

Bringing In The Sheaves:

  1. Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness,
    Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve;
    Waiting for the harvest, and the time of reaping,
    We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.

    • Refrain:
      Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
      We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves;
      Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
      We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
  2. Sowing in the sunshine, sowing in the shadows,
    Fearing neither clouds nor winter’s chilling breeze;
    By and by the harvest, and the labor ended,
    We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
