37. The Tares

1 Satan the tares is sowing,
So earnestly sowing, sowing,
And with the wheat they’re growing,
Together growing here.

Refrain:
And the angels will gather,
By and by, by and by,
The tares for the burning and the wheat for the sky;
The angels will gather,
By and by, by and by,
The tares for the burning and the wheat for the sky.

2 God for the wheat is caring,
So tenderly caring, caring,
And while the tares he’s sparing
The harvest draweth near. [Refrain]

3 Yes, he the what is keeping,
So lovingly keeping, keeping,
Safe for the time of reaping,
For garners guilt above. [Refrain]

4 When he the wheat doth sever,
Eternally sever, sever,
May we be his forever,
To sing his grace and love. [Refrain]
