Lyrics
Loss Produces Gain
A seed first must die falling helpless to the ground
Then cover up itself from the sunlight all around
Then storms must surely come with clouds so black and dark
Those gloomy rainy days is what gives the seed a start
Loss produces gain I’ve seen it time and time again
We all must spend a season in the rain
And though the field takes work to plow
The burden’s less once you know how
For once you learn the rules of the game
Losses become dead seeds waiting for rain
A man must lose his way before he’ll view the path of yesterday
The many circles completed yet still he stands defeated
His path must take a turn yet the lesson so hard to learn
So hard to learn indeed to fall a dying seed
The lesson to be learned was taught by Jesus Christ
He showed without a doubt the only way to life
He explained why storms must come and how the plowing must be done
Yes he set forth the rules and they are still the same
Loss produces gain I’ve seen it time and time again
We all must spend a season in the rain
And though the cross was tough to bear
Jesus let us put him there
For Jesus knew the rules of the game
Losses become dead seeds waiting for rain
Oh thank you Lord the lesson is so plain
We all must fall dead seeds waiting for rain
