Bringing in the Sheaves

Bringing in the Sheaves

Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness
Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve
Waiting for the harvest and the time of reaping
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves

  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

Sowing in the sunshine, sowing in the shadows
Fearing neither clouds nor winter's chilling breeze
By and by the harvest and the labored end
We shall come rejoicing bringing in the sheaves

Going forth with weeping, sowing for the master
Tho' the loss sustains our spirit often grieves
When our weeping's over, He will bid us welcome
We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves

words by Rev. Knowles Shaw (1834-1878)
Tune by George Minor
