Author: Knowles Shaw Hymnal: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old #143 (1908) First Line: Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness Refrain First Line: Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves Lyrics: 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.
Chorus:
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. [Chorus]
3 Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master,
Tho' the loss sustain'd our spirit often grieves;
When our weeping's over, He will bid us welcome,
We shall come, rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. [Chorus]
