TEACHER APPRECIATION POEM

Eternally Grateful

Dedicated to Teacher's of God's Word

 

God said, "I need a gardener,

Someone to sow my Word.

I need someone to plant the seed,

Till ev'ryone has heard."

 

Because you've said, "I'll sow the seed,"

Our God has made them grow.

Now we've become a garden here;

Each day God's love we show.

 

God prepared and He tilled each heart,

But you have sown the seeds.

You've taught God's truth and lived your lives

By all your words and deeds.

 

You've sown good seeds--replaced the weeds;

Ev'ry heart's now abloom.

The fragrance of our garden here

Is like a sweet perfume.

 

Look around you now. You will see

Beauty from seeds you've sown.

Look around you now. You will see

God's garden here He's grown.

 

Eternally we'll be grateful;

Your lives we do applaud,

For our hearts are now a garden

Since you said, "Yes to God."
