Sowing for the Harvest

Author: G. W. S. Hymnal: The Golden Sheaf #2 (1902) First Line: We are sowing the seed of the word of life Refrain First Line: What we sow in the sunshine Lyrics: 1 We are sowing the seed of the word of life, We are sowing each day in a world of strife; We are sowing with care in the morning bright; We are sowing till late, in the shades of night. Chorus: What we sow in the sunshine, or sow in the rain; What we scatter abroad we shall gather again! O, that will the harvest be, that will the harvest be, O, that will the harvest, harvest be. 2 We are sowing the seed in a world of pain, We are sowing in faith, we shall reap again; We are sowing in hope, from the field to win Some poor soul, in the harvest to gather in. [Chorus] 3 We are sowing each day, in our word and deed, We are sowing the truth with an earnest heed; With a diligent hand we delight to sow, In the morning and eve, where the wheat may grow. [Chorus] 4 We are sowing in tears, we shall reap ere long, When the Master shall come, with the angel throng; Then we'll rest from our sorrows, our toils and cares, In the mansions of light, when he burns the tares. [Chorus] 5 If we sow to the Spirit, our life is sure; If we labor in faith, to the end endure; Tho' with weeping we sow, yet with joy we'll come, When we bring in our sheaves, to the harvest home. [Chorus] Tune Title: [We are sowing the seed of the word of life]
