Since I Met You…
More lovely is the sound
Of the birds in song,
Since I met You,
Since to You I belong.
More blue is the sky,
More brilliant the sun,
Since I met You,
Since I found the One.
Live courageously from your heart!
More lovely is the sound
Of the birds in song,
Since I met You,
Since to You I belong.
More blue is the sky,
More brilliant the sun,
Since I met You,
Since I found the One.

Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
“The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
