Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IJIJ KLKL MDMD

Jesus Lord of Heaven aboveA
Earth beneath is all Thy ownB
In the depths of Heavenly loveA
Let my human heart be sownB
-
Let my love that as a grainC
None on earth might care to seeD
Buried in Thy grave remainC
Be a precious seed to TheeD
-
Thou wilt raise it though it dieE
Thou wilt see it hidden thereF
Thou wilt guard it with Thine eyeE
From the spirits of the airF
-
None shall take it thence awayG
It is sown for Thy delightH
Thou wilt shine on it by dayG
Thou wilt shield it in the nightH
-
Where the silent waters flowI
It shall multiply its rootJ
It shall blossom it shall growI
It shall bear immortal fruitJ
-
Sown in weakness raised in powerK
Sown in suffering raised in peaceL
It shall brave the blighting hourK
In the year of drought increaseL
-
Never hurt by sun or stormM
Blest its every stage shall beD
Dying in its mortal formM
Living evermore in TheeD
