503. Reap What We Sow

1 Reap what we sow! O solemn tho't!
With what an awful meaning fraught
Yet surely we to judgment go
To reap just what in life we sow.

Refrain:
Yes, reap just what we sow;
Let's mind then what we do;
'Tis God's decree for you and me,
To reap just what we sow.

2 Reap what we sow! oh, when and where
Shall this reward so sure appear?
Beginning in God's church forgiv'n,
'Twill end in either hell or heav'n. [Refrain]

3 Reap what we sow! if to the flesh
We yield, and God's true Spirit crush,
We well may look for pain and death.
They're sure to come in evil's path. [Refrain]

4 Reap what we sow! no wealth or pow'r
Can help us in that judgment hour,
Except the wealth of faith alone;
We're sure to reap what we have sown. [Refrain]

5 Reap what we sow! oh, God of grace,
Pardon us ere we meet Thy face,
Grant us full cleansing from all sin,
The Spirit place our hearts within. [Refrain]

6 Reap what we sow! oh, grant that we
Sow to the Spirit constantly,
That when we shall to judgment go,
We'll joy to reap just what we sow. [Refrain]
