Well, there are people never receivin'
Anything from God at all
Oh, they are shaken from their believin'
When they don't see results, they quickly fall

But don't you waver, keep on livin'
In the way God wants you to
Don't get discouraged, keep on a-givin'
Soon it will come back to you

Keep on castin' your bread upon the water
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave
Keep on castin' your bread upon the water
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave
Good measure pressed down
Shaken together runnin' over
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave

Keep on workin, seekin' the kingdom
Instead of workin' for your needs
Keep on sharin' the love of Jesus
You know, growin' comes from plantin' seeds

Keep on castin' your bread upon the water
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave
Keep on castin' your bread upon the water
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave
Good measure pressed down
Shaken together runnin' over
Soon it's gonna come back home on every wave...
