Author: Mrs. Harriet E. Jones Hymnal: Singing by the Way (Rev. ed.) #52 (1897) First Line: Nothing to bring, O Saviour, King Lyrics: 1 Nothing to bring, O Saviour King, Thou Lamb of Calvary; No harvest treasures have we bound, No worthy increase have we found, No fruitful yield for Thee, No fruitful yield for Thee. 2 Nothing to bring the risen King, Who died that we might live; The scattered sheaves of precious wheat, All trampled down by careless feet, No gathered grain to give, No gathered grain to give. 3 Nothing to bring the loving King, Who gives unsparingly; Who offered up His life to save, Who heeds our cry, who stills the wave, When tossed on life's dark sea, When tossed on life's dark sea. 4 How can we meet Thee face to face, If idle while below? How can we stand at Thy right hand If we, while in the lower land, Shall neither reap nor sow, Shall neither reap nor sow? Languages: English Tune Title: [Nothing to bring, O Saviour, King]

She was always fond of reading, and was a great singer, with a clear ringing voice. On July 7, 1844, she married a son of Rev. Zenas Jones; her husband died in 1879. Her song writing career began when her poetry came to the attention of Dr. M. J. Munger, who asked if she could write some Sunday school hymns for him. She went on to write for Daniel Towner, J. C. Ewing, the Fillmore brothers, and others. --hymntime.com/tch
