Seeds of Truth

Words and music by Kevin R. Olson

First-Place Song

1. There was something in the way that you spoke to me that day
As you told me of the Savior’s love and how he showed the way.
There was something deep inside that so softly testified that it was true.
These precious seeds of truth I owe to you.
Chorus

2. Long ago a perfect man planted truth in hearts of men.
As my heart received these living seeds I came to understand
That as harvest time draws near, I must spread these words of cheer to all I see.
Your precious seeds of truth live on in me.
Chorus
Now I will share the seeds of truth you shared with me.

Chorus:
My friend, I wonder if you will ever know
that flowers bloomed from seeds of truth you planted long ago.
I’ll always say a prayer of thanks in hushed humility
for the tiny seeds of truth you shared with me.
