Based on 2 Cor 9:6-11, You Reap What You Sow reflects on the attitude we are challenged to have in life. This attitude being that we give the best of ourselves in all we do, so we can reap a good harvest from it. It goes with the cliche ‘You get out what you put in’ and even pushes towards the concept of karma. The inclusion of a dobro guitar gives this song a unique feel compared to David’s previous work.
Lyrics
Lyrics:
Chorus:
You reap what you sow
You sow what you reap
Sow a few, get your few
Sow a heap, get your heap
You reap what you sow
V1:
Cheerfully give of yourself
Don’t hide away, take yourself off that shelf
With His grace shine your light
Don’t hold back, oh fight that good fight
You reap what you sow
Chorus
You reap what you sow
You sow what you reap
Sow a few, get your few
Sow a heap, get your heap
You reap what you sow
V2:
Light up the dark for your world
Let lose your flag, let it be unfurled
Take a chance, dance the dance
Make that change, so we all can advance
You reap what you sow
Chorus:
You reap what you sow
You sow what you reap
Sow a few, get your few
Sow a heap, get your heap
You reap what you sow
V3:
Of what you do, don’t you shout
For it’s not who, we will know it’s about
The Father will see what’s done
And through His grace, will help the
kingdom come
You reap what you sow
Chorus:
You reap what you sow
You sow what you reap
Sow a few, get your few
Sow a heap, get your heap
You reap what you sow
You reap what you sow
2 Cor 9:6-11
