[Oe List ...] Song lyrics

[Kenneth]

And the line should read, "the most of the seeds which in SPRINGTIME, I've
sown. It's amazing how deeply ingrained the songs of The Spirit Movement are
in our collective consciousness.

Thanks for looking this up.  The tune is now playing through my head, over
and over...

One small correction:  I think it's "But the TEARS of the sower and the
songs of the reaper..."

Wonderful song.

Marsha

The Songs of the Reaper

The seeds I have scattered in springtime with weeping,
And watered with tears and with dews from on high;
Another may shout when the harvester's reaping,
Shall gather my grain in the "sweet by and by". 

Refrain;
Over and over, yes, deeper and deeper
My heart is pierced through with life's sorrowing cry, 
But the songs of the sower and the songs of the reaper
Shall mingle together in joy by and by. 
By and by, by and by,
By and by, by and by,
Yes the songs of the sower and the songs of the reaper shall mingle together
in joy by and by. 

Another may reap what in springtime I've planted,
Another rejoice in the fruit of my pain,
Not knowing my tears when in summer I fainted
While toiling sad-hearted in sunshine and rain. 

Refrain

The thorns will have choked and the summer's sun blasted
The most of the seed which in summer I've sown. 
But the Lord Who has watched while my weary toil lasted 
Will give me a harvest for what I have done.
