Oh, beauteous is the harvest wherein all goodness thrives, and this the true thanksgiving, the first-fruits of our lives. 3 Within a hallowed acre he sows yet other grain, when peaceful earth receiveth the dead he died to gain; for though the growth be hidden, we know that they shall rise; yea even now they ripen in sunny paradise. O summer land of harvest, O fields for ever white with souls that wear Christ’s raiment, with crowns of golden light! 4 One day the heavenly Sower shall reap where he hath sown, and come again rejoicing, and with him bring his own; and then the fan of judgement shall winnow from his floor the chaff into the furnace that flameth evermore. O holy, awful Reaper, have mercy in the day, thou puttest in thy sickle, and cast us not away. Scripture: Matthew 13:3-9 Languages: English Tune Title: ST BEATRICE
