Rejoicing Together

Author: Susan E. Gammons Meter: 10.7.10.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: A sower with weeping went forth to sow Lyrics: 1 A sower with weeping went forth to sow— Went bearing the precious seed; He passed where the wayside vines drooped low, Passed over the dewy mead. From early dawn till the stars came out, He scattered the golden grain, Alike on the hillside parchèd with drought, Alike on the fertile plain. 2 The seed soon sprung up which the sower cast; It grew both by night and day; And lo, e’er the harvest time had passed, A reaper strayed that way. He reaped the grain with a happy song; His sickle was keen and bright; Heavy laden with sheaves he passed along In the rosy, sunset light. 3 When the Lord of the Harvest shall come to receive And garner His ripened wheat, The sower and reaper together, their sheaves With rejoicing shall lay at His feet; Together shall enter the heav’nly rest, To sow and to reap no more; Together shall join in the song of the blest, For the weeping time will be o’er.

Over the hills the trumpet is sounding, Valleys re-echo the strain; Watchmen in Zion, tell the glad story, Jesus is coming again. 3 Tho’ He is pleading still with the Father, Soon He is coming again; Soon will His pleading cease and forever, For He is coming to reign; "Jesus, come quickly," still we are crying, While the time seemeth so long; Trusting the promise, still we are waiting, Singing the beautiful song.
