SOWERS' SONG by CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER

First Line: KEEP YOUR STEP AND KEEP YOUR SWING
Last Line: AND GOD'S GOOD-PLEASURE GUIDES THEM ALL.
Subject(s): SOWING AND SOWERS;
KEEP your step and keep your swing!
The earth is young with every spring.
Yon seed that dies will bear no wheat,
Yet it fares well, for rest is sweet.
Another through the sod makes way,
It too fares well, for sweet is day.
Not one from out this world may fall
And God's good-pleasure guides them all.
