Lyrics:
Isn’t It Amazing?
Tune: GLORIA (“Angels We Have Heard on High”)
Text: Anna Strickland, 2023
Music: Traditional French Carol
Seeds within the soil grow
Deep under the ground below
Planted when the earth was bare
No life showing anywhere
Refrain:
Gloria! Isn’t it amazing?
Gloria! Isn’t it amazing?
Deeper, deeper grow the roots
Reaching upward grow the shoots
Through the earth they weave and snake
Until soil starts to break
Refrain
Cell by cell a plant is built
Toward the sun the leaves will tilt
Nourished by the sun and rain
To bring forth its seed and grain
Refrain
Even when the earth seems bare
Plant the seeds of hope with care
If you water in the drought
You will reap
