Seed of faith
planted in my soul
as I was welcomed to the world
Jesus gently placed it hoping
it would grow and bare fruit
Slowly the seed shows growth
Then there is a leaf as
I experience the love of Jesus
The beginning of a life of thanks
There are times when the growth
stops or even some of the growth
is cut off because of my lack to see
or hear the wonderful song of Jesus
But then the forgiveness of Jesus
holds me fast and I find the courage
to water this seed
which was given with such love
Jesus please help me take care of this
precious seed and maybe- just maybe
someday it might become a powerful
tree of faith and bare much fruit
Amen
