1 Almighty God, your word is cast like seed upon the ground, now let the dew of heaven descend, and righteous fruits abound.

2 Let not our selfishness and hate this holy seed remove, but give it root in every heart to bring forth fruits of love.

3 Let not the world's deceitful cares the rising plant destroy, but let it yield a hundredfold the fruits of peace and joy.
