Seeds

My friend Dave emailed today asking for the lyrics for the song "Seeds." Pastor Dave, as he's known to his congregation in Connecticut, noted the Parable of the Sower is coming up on the church lectionary and was reminded of the song.

I get more requests for this song than any other and have been asked on more than one occasion if I wrote it. It was written by Pat Alger and Ralph Murphy and recorded in the early 1990s by Kathy Mattea.

I recorded "Seeds" with A Bunch of Guys for an album called "Take a Breath," a fundraiser for ELCA World Hunger. Dave Piper and Knute Ogren did a fabulous job of producing and promoting "Take A Breath' and "Enough," and the success of the fundraising was gratifying to all involved. For more on ELCA World Hunger, see: http://archive.elca.org/hunger/swa.html

If you're interested in a copy of the CD, contact me.
