A Harvest Song.
Words by George Davies.
Music by J. M. Bentley, Mus. Doc.
1. With the set-ting of the sun All the work is near-ly done,
And the last up-lift-ed sheaf Brings the toil-ers sweet re-lief.
2. Down the nar-row coun-try lane Trails the hea-vy-la-den wain;
Men and wo-men, old and young, Singing loud their sim-ple song.
3. Now the barn the corn re-ceives—Piled up high the gold-en sheaves;
While the jol-ly reap-ers sing Till the ve-ry raft-ers ring.
Repeat in Chorus.
Greet the reap-ers as they come With a wel-come har-vest-home!
