1 Unkindly or kindly we sow today,
The seeds that shall germ by the great highway;
It may be for weal, or it may be for woe,
That we're sowing the seed wheresoever we go.

Chorus:
What will the harvest be?
What will the harvest be?

2 Yea, thoughtful or thoughtless, wherever we stray,
We are sowing the seed for the great harvest day;
We're sowing at morning, at noontide and night,
We are sowing in darkness and sowing in light. [Chorus]

3 Unkindly or gently, our work may be done,
In the bright morning light, or the noonday sun;
Now sowing with patience and sowing with care,
Now sowing in sadness and sowing with prayer. [Chorus]
