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 sustained our spirit often grieves;When our weeping's over, He will bid us welcome,We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. [Chorus]
