What A Reaping!

Author: Russell Kelso Carter Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11398 First Line: Oh! the sowing time seems weary Refrain First Line: What a reaping, reaping Lyrics: 1 Oh! the sowing time seems weary And full oft the workers cry, To the Lord who rules the harvest, For the reaping by and by. Refrain: What a reaping, reaping, What a reaping it will be by and by. Every sorrow we have known, Every tear that we have sown, What a reaping it will be by and by! 2 In the sorrow and the suffering, When each breath is but a sigh; Though we sow in tears, remember There’s a reaping by and by. [Refrain] 3 When our hearts are strained to breaking, Comfort other sufferers nigh; And our harvest will be doubled In the reaping by and by. [Refrain] 4 For the love of Christ is flowing In a stream that’s never dry; He will water all our sowing, For the reaping by and by. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh! the sowing time seems weary]
