WHEN THE HARVEST IS PAST
When the Harvest Is Past
Author: S. F. Smith Hymnal: Choice Hymns of the Faith #252 (1944) First Line: When the harvest is past, and the summer is gone Lyrics: 1 When the harvest is past, and the summer is gone,
And sermons and prayers shall be o’er;
When the beams cease to break, of the blest Lord’s day morn,
And Jesus invited thee no more:
Chorus:
When the harvest is past,
And the summer is o’er,
With the wheat or the tares,
When the judgment appears,
Oh, which shall it be evermore?
2 When the rich gales of mercy no longer shall blow,
The Gospel no message declare;
Sinner, how canst thou bear the deep wailings of woe?
How suffer the night of despair? [Chorus]
3 When the holy have gone to the regions of peace,
To dwell in the mansions above,
When their harmony wakes, in the fullness of bliss,
Their song to the Savior they love: [Chorus]
4 Say, O sinner that livest at rest and secure,
Who fearest no trouble to come;
Can thy spirit the swellings of sorrow endure,
Or bear the impenitent’s doom? [Chorus]

1826 - 1888 Person Name: W. F. Sherwin Composer of "[When the harvest is past, and the summer is gone]" in The Portfolio of Sunday School Songs Sherwin, William Fisk, an American Baptist, was born at Buckland, Massachusetts, March 14,1826. His educational opportunities, so far as schools were concerned, were few, but he made excellent use of his time and surroundings. At fifteen he went to Boston and studied music under Dr. Mason: In due course he became a teacher of vocal music, and held several important appointments in Massachusetts; in Hudson and Albany, New York County, and then in New York City. Taking special interest in Sunday Schools, he composed carols and hymn-tunes largely for their use, and was associated with the Rev. R. Lowry and others in preparing Bright Jewels, and other popular Sunday School hymn and tune books. A few of his melodies are known in Great Britain through I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, where they are given with his signature. His hymnwriting was limited. The following pieces are in common use:—
1. Grander than ocean's story (1871). The Love of God.
2. Hark, bark, the merry Christmas bells. Christmas Carol.
3. Lo, the day of God is breaking. The Spiritual Warfare.
4. Wake the song of joy and gladness. Sunday School or Temperance Anniversary.
5. Why is thy faith, 0 Child of God, so small. Safety in Jesus.
Mr. Sherwin died at Boston, Massachusetts, April 14, 1888.
