Sowing Seeds (Lyrics by Nicholas Townsend Smith)
[Intro] [Instrumental intro: Gentle acoustic guitar strumming, gradually building up with drums and a bassline, humming] [FEMALE VOCALS] One day while wandering in my dreams I saw the strangest thing A man was planting different seeds To see what fruits they’d bring. I watched him till and dig the earth And carefully prepare it But when he’d plant tomatoes there The bush brought forth a carrot. [Prechorus Building up the intensity] With every seed he sowed, I wondered, What could this all mean? In a world so wild and full of mystery, Could this be more than it seems? [Chorus] [Powerful, uplifting melody] Oh, what you plant, you’ll surely grow, The seeds of life we all must sow. Kindness, faith, and dreams so bright, Will bloom and flourish in the light. What you put out in the world, you’ll see, It’s the fruits of your own tree. [FEMALE VOCALS] He threw some orange seeds in the air And whichever ground they fell on The trees would grow extremely tall And bring forth watermelon. The broccoli seeds would grow as pears The peach trees.. artichoke I couldn’t see how this could be It must have been a joke. [Prechorus, Building up again] But as he watered and nurtured them, The peas began to grow, A turnip tree, a palm with grapes, So much we don’t yet know. [Chorus] [Repeating the powerful, uplifting melody] Oh, what you plant, you’ll surely grow, The seeds of life we all must sow. Kindness, faith, and dreams so bright, Will bloom and flourish in the light. What you put out in the world, you’ll see, It’s the fruits of your own tree. [Bridge] [FEMALE VOCALS] [Emotional and reflective] I rubbed my eyes and pinched myself, And fell right out of bed. I woke up from the craziness That took over my head. I wondered on the spectacle Of such abnormal dreaming Could the things I saw that night Hold a deeper meaning? [FEMALE VOCALS] I wondered and I pondered hard About the things I saw And then I realized that they were Contrary to God’s law For God has blessed each thing on Earth To keep us from a bind And therefore every seed we plant brings forth in its own kind. [Chorus] [Final, uplifting chorus with all instruments] Oh, what you plant, you’ll surely grow, The seeds of life we all must sow. Kindness, faith, and dreams so bright, Will bloom and flourish in the light. What you put out in the world, you’ll see, It’s the fruits of your own tree. [Outro] [Instrumental outro: Gradual fade out with acoustic guitar and gentle humming] [Fade to end] [End]
