Song Lyrics: Sowing In The Morning (Bringing In The Sheaves)

1. Sowing in the morning,

Sowing seeds of kindness,

sowing in the moontide

and the dewy eves.

Waiting for the harvest

and the time of reaping,

we shall come rejoicing,

bringing in the sheaves

Bringing in the sheaves (2)

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 labour ended:

we shall come rejoicing

bringing in the sheaves.

3. Going forth with weeping

Sowing for the master,

Through the loss sustained

Our spirit often grieves.

When our weeping’s over

He shall bid us welcome.

We shall come rejoicing

Bringing in the sheaves.
