369- Bringing in the Sheaves

Christian Church: Mission of the Church

1

  • 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.

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,
  • Though 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.
