Bringing in the Sheaves

***************

hymn by Knowles Shaw music by George Minor

A public domain Hymn

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,

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.

Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master,

Though 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.

I Feel Like Traveling On

verses by Rev. William Hunter, D.D.

Public domain Hymn

My heavenly home is bright and fair,

I feel like traveling on

Nor pain nor death can enter there

I feel like traveling on

Refrain:

I feel like traveling on

My heavenly home is bright and fair,

I feel like traveling on

Let others seek a home below

I feel like traveling on

Which flames devour or waves o'erflow

I feel like traveling on

Be mine a happier lot to own

I feel like traveling on

A heavenly mansion nigh the throne

I feel like traveling on

Although like Lazarus sick and sore

I feel like traveling on

My heavenly mansion is secure

I feel like traveling on.

The Lord has been so good to me

I feel like traveling on

Until that blessed home I see

I feel like traveling on

GOSPEL SHIP

public domain Hymn

<chorus>

I'm gonna take a trip on that old Gospel Ship,

I'm going far beyond the sky.

I'm gonna shout and sing 'til all Heaven rings,

When I bid this world goodbye.

I have good news to bring, and that is why I sing,

All my joys with you I'll share.

I'm gonna take a trip on that old Gospel Ship,

And go sailing through the air.

<chorus>

I'm gonna take a trip on that old Gospel Ship,

I'm going far beyond the sky.

I'm gonna shout and sing 'til all Heaven rings,

When I bid this world goodbye.

I can scarcely wait, I know I won't be late,

I'll spend my time in prayer.

And when the ship comes in, I'll leave this world of sin,

And go sailing through the air.

<chorus>

I'm gonna take a trip on that old Gospel Ship,

I'm going far beyond the sky.

I'm gonna shout and sing 'til all Heaven rings,

When I bid this world goodbye.

If you are ashamed of me, you ought not to be,

Yes you'd better have a care.

If too much fault you find, you’ll sure be left behind,

While I'm sailing through the air.

<chorus>

I'm gonna take a trip on that old Gospel Ship,

I'm going far beyond the sky.

I'm gonna shout and sing 'til all Heaven rings,

When I bid this world goodbye.

HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW

Why should I feel discouraged?

Why should dark shadows come ?

Why should my heart be lonely;

and long for heaven and home ?

When Jesus is my portion:

My constant friend is He:

His eye is on the sparrow;

and I know He watches me:

CHORUS

I sing because I'm Happy:

I sing because I'm free:

His eye is on the Sparrow;

And I know He watches me:

Scripture - Luke 12:6

"Are not five Sparrows sold for two farthings,

and not one is forgotten by God ? "

HE LIFTED ME

By Charles H. Gabrial

Psalm 40:2 - He brought me up out of

the miry clay and set my feet upon a rock.

In loving kindness, Jesus came;

My soul in mercy, to reclaim;

And from the depths, of sin and shame;

Through grace, He lifted me:

REFRAIN

From sinking sand, He lifted me;

With tender hand, He lifted me;

From shades of night;

To plains of light;

O praise His name, He lifted me:

He called me long, before I heard;

Before my sin-ful heart was stirred;

But when I took, Him at His word;

Forgiv'n , He lifted me:

REFRAIN

From sinking sand, He lifted me;

With tender hand, He lifted me;

From shades of night;

To plains of light;

O praise His name, He lifted me:

His brow was pierced, with many a thorn;

His hands with cruel, nails were torn;

When from my guilt, and grief forlorn;

In love, He lifted me:

REFRAIN

From sinking sand, He lifted me;

With tender hand, He lifted me;

From shades of night;

To plains of light;

O praise His name, He lifted me:

Now on a high-er plain I dwell;

And with my soul, I know tis well;

Yet how or why, I can not tell;

He should have lift-ed me:

REFRAIN

From sinking sand, He lifted me;

With tender hand, He lifted me;

From shades of night;

To plains of light;

O praise His name, He lifted me:

IN THE NEW JERUSALEM

by C. B. Widmeyer

1. When the toils of life are over

And we lay our armor down,

And we bid farewell to earth with all its cares,

We shall meet and greet our loved ones

And our Christ we then shall crown

In the new Jerusalem.

REFRAIN:

There'll be singing, there'll be shouting

When the saints come marching home,

In (the new) Jerusalem,

In (the new) Jerusalem:

Waving palms with loud hosannas

As the King shall take His throne,

In the new (in the new) Jerusalem (Jerusalem).

2. Though the way is sometimes lonely,

He will take me with His hand,

Through the testings and the trials I must go;

But I'll trust and gladly follow,

For sometime I'll understand,

In the new Jerusalem.

3. When the last goodbye is spoken

And the tear-stains wiped away,

And our eyes shall catch a glimpse of glory fair,

Then with bounding hearts we'll meet Him

Who hath washed our sins away,

In the new Jerusalem.

4. When we join the ransomed army

In the summerland above,

And the face of our dear Saviour we behold,

We will sing and shout forever

And we'll grow in perfect love,

In the new Jerusalem.

I’LL SOON BE GONE

refrain

I’LL SOON, BE GONE

FROM THIS OLE WORLD WE’RE LIVING ON.

TO HEAVENS GLOW, ETERNAL JOY, FOR THOSE WHO KNOW.

SO WITH OUT FEAR, I’LL WAIT TO HEAR,

THE ANGELS TRUMPET CALL

AND ON THAT DAY I’LL SOAR AWAY,

OH YES I’LL SOON BE GONE.

(1)

WE’RE LIVING IN THOSE PERILOUS TIMES.

EACH DAY BRINGS NEW DISTRESS.

BUT GOD HAS TOLD US IN HIS WORD,

TO PRAY AND DO OUR BEST.

TO KEEP OUR LAMPS ALL TRIMED AND BRIGHT,

OUR WEDDING GARMENTS ON.

AND SOMETHING STIRRING IN MY SOUL,

SAYS CHILD YOU’LL SOON BE GONE.

refrain

(2)

WELL… SIMPLY PUT,

THE WORKS OF MEN MUST ALL BE COUNTED LOST.

AND THOSE WHO BUILD UPON THE SAND,

MUST PAY AN AWFUL COST.

SO WHY NOT HEED AND PRAY INDEED,

THE SPIRIT LEADS YOU ON.

AND WITH THE SAINTS YOU TOO CAN SING,

THANK GOD I’LL SOON BE GONE.

refrain
