Verse 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. Refrain ~ 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. Verse 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. Verse 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.
