Our minds are constantly cluttered with information overload, notifications, work stress, and modern anxieties. If we aren't careful, these "weeds" will choke out our spiritual lives. Good Soil is a raw, daily prayer asking God to break up the hard clay of our skeptical hearts, pull up the weeds of anxiety, and give us the quiet focus needed to let His truth actually sink deep and change how we live.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You came with a handful
Of seed in your palm
You scattered it wide
Like a prayer in the dawn
Some fell on the roadside
Hard as stone
Some got choked out
By the world's undertow
[Pre-Chorus]
But I hear the lesson
Soft in the rain
What we hold matters
What we make remains
[Chorus]
Give me good soil
Let me grow, let me grow
Good soil
Where the mercy can show
I’ll be good soil
For the seed You sow
And I’ll scatter it farther
Wherever I go
[Verse 2]
The thorns in my hurry
The rocks in my fear
The dust in my anger
The weeds of old years
You broke up my hurry
You pulled up the lies
Turned over the hard parts
And opened my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Now my hands are ready
My heart is awake
I want what is holy
For other's sake
[Chorus]
Give me good soil
Let me grow, let me grow
Good soil
Where the mercy can show
I’ll be good soil
For the seed You sow
And I’ll scatter it farther
Wherever I go
[Bridge]
Make me a field
For Your glory to shine
To harvest a bounty
That's Yours and not mine
Let the fruit that I bear
Become seed for the blind
To feed every soul
That You bring me to find
[Final Chorus]
Give me good soil
Let me grow, let me grow
Good soil
Where the mercy can show
I’ll be good soil
For the seed You sow
And I’ll scatter it farther
Wherever I go
[Outro]
Good soil
Let it run deep and slow
Good soil
Till the whole world knows
I’ll be good soil
For the seed You sow
And I’ll scatter it farther
Wherever I go
