Sing Songs of Jubilee
Author: Kate Ulmer Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 137:2 First Line: Ye people of the living God Refrain First Line: O let no harp be silent now Lyrics: 1 Ye people of the Living God,
Lift up your heads and sing;
To magnify his holy name
Let every glad harp ring.
Refrain:
O let no harp be silent now,
Sing songs of jubilee;
The captor’s pow’r is overcome,
Praise God, praise God, we’re free!
2 Why should his people mournful be?
Why should their songs be stilled?
We’re free! We’re free! O sing it o’er
Till every heart is thrilled! [Refrain]
3 Once sold for naught to serve as slaves,
Our precious birthright lost;
Our blest Redeemer ransomed us
At great and fearful cost. [Refrain]
4 Tho’ in the land of strangers now,
Surrounded by the foe,
Ere long with songs and shouts of joy
To Zion fair we’ll go. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Ye people of the living God]

Where Are Your Sheaves?
Author: Jennie E. Hussey Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Jeremiah 8:20 First Line: The bright summer days have been fleeting Refrain First Line: Where, O where are the golden sheaves? Lyrics: 1 The bright summer days have been fleeting,
With sunshine and quick’ning show’rs;
The harvester’s chorus of greeting
Has followed the springtime flow’rs.
Refrain:
Where, O where are the golden sheaves?
Thou hast gathered nought but leaves;
Haste, for alas! the harvest may pass,
Without any golden grain;
Go to sowing and labor long,
(Summer ends with a reaper’s song);
Sing it again, your harvest refrain,
Rejoicing with golden grain.
2 The fields that were white for the reaping,
Stand sere in the twilight gray;
The harvesters listen with weeping,
To hear what their Lord will say. [Refrain]
3 O reaper, go forth to your duty,
Or ever the time is past;
The King to be hold in his beauty
Shall be your reward at last. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [The bright summer days have been fleeting]
Where Are Your Sheaves?
Countless Mercies
Author: Flora Kirkland Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:32 First Line: Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried? Refrain First Line: Countless mercies! such a boundless store Lyrics: 1 Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried?
Stop and look to Jesus, Helper, Friend and Guide;
Think of all his mercies; such a boundless store!
Tears will change to praises as you count them o’er.
Refrain:
Countless mercies! such a boundless store!
Countless mercies! pressed and running o’er!
Countless mercies! try to count them o’er
Till you gaze in wonder at your boundless store.
2 Think of hidden dangers he hath brought you thro’;
Think of all the burdens he hath borne for you;
Count his words of comfort in your deepest need;
Count the times when Jesus proved a Friend indeed. [Refrain]
3 Does your pathway darken ‘neath a cloud of fear?
Count your many mercies; dry each bitter tear.
Even ‘mid the shadows trust him without fear;
“Home will be the sweeter for the dark down here.” [Refrain]
4 As he looks from heaven now on you and me,
Don’t you know he chooseth what each day shall be?
Trust his loving wisdom, though the hot tears start,
Give to him the incense of a grateful heart. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Are you heavy-laden and with sorrow tried?]
