Bringing In the Sheaves
Music: George A. Minor, arr. DeReau K. Farrar
Text: Knowles Shaw
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.
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.
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.
Light of a Clear Blue Morning
Text and Music: Dolly Parton, arr. Craig Hella Johnson
It’s been a long dark night
And I’ve been a waiting for the morning.
It’s been a long hard fight,
But I see a brand new day a dawning.
I’ve been looking for the sunshine
‘Cause I ain’t seen it in so long.
Everything’s gonna work out just fine,
Everything’s gonna be all right,
It’s gonna be okay.
‘Cause I can see the light of a clear blue morning.
I can see the light of a brand new day.
I can see the light of a clear blue morning.
And everything’s gonna be all right,
It’s gonna be okay.
