BRINGING IN THE SHEAVES
1. Sowing in the
morning, sowing seeds of kindness,
Sowing in noontide
and the dewy eve;
Waiting for the
harvest, and the time of reaping,
We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
Refrain
Bringing in the
sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves;
Bringing in the
sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,
We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
2. Sowing in the
sunshine, sowing in the shadows,
Fearing neither
clouds nor winter's chilling breeze;
By and by, the
harvest and the labor ended,
We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
3. Going forth with
weeping, sowing for the Master,
Tho' the loss
sustained our spirit often grieves;
When our weeping's
over, He will bid us welcome,
We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
