lyrics

The sower goes out to sow the seed Mt 13:3
The prodigal son is filled with greed Lk 15:12
And five virgins are turned away Mt 25:11-12
The fig tree withers and the banquet's filled Mt 21:20
The sand man’s ruined and the lepers are healed Mt 7:27
And an unjust servant will have to pay Mt 18:34

A reluctant son he does the task Mt. 21:9
Good gifts are given to those who ask Mt 7:11
And the workers are paid what is fair Mt 20:13-15
A man lights a lamp, he puts it on a stand Mt 5:15
Another finds a treasure and he buys the land Mt 13:44
And a tree is known by the fruit it bears Mt 7:17-19

And those who have ears ... let them hear Mk 4:9
And those who have ears ... let them hear Mk 4:9

Well, the first are last and the last are first Mk 10:31
Drink from the well and you'll never thirst Jn 4:13-14
And the narrow gate is entered by a few Mt 7:14
A man stands righteous, one beats his chest Lk 18:10-14
Take my yoke and you will find rest Mt 11:29-30
And the kingdom of God will come to you Mk 4:11
Chorus
Jesus stands at your door and knocks Rv 3:20
Saying build your life upon the solid rock Mt 7:24-25
You will know the peace I have for you Jn 14:27
Draw near to me, I'll draw near to you
Calling out to those who hear Jn 10:16
Become a child and draw near Mk 10:15
And know the peace I have for you
Chorus
