Description

Joseph’s dream where the sheaves represent his family: “Behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf arose and stood upright. And behold, your sheaves gathered around it and bowed down to my sheaf” ( Genesis 37:7). As a singer,reporters of the press all spoke of his singing as something wonderful. Soon after beginning to preach, he started to compose and write music. His first hymn was "The Shining Ones," which is still popular. He published at different times five singing books: "Shining Pearls,""Golden Gate,""Sparkling Jewels,""The Gospel Trumpet," and the "Morning Star.""Bringing in the Sheaves" was one of the last songs from his hand.

According to hymnary.org, "Knowles Shaw...was born near New London, in Morgan Township, Ohio, on the 13th of October, 1834. His mother's maiden name was Huldah Griffin, and by both of his parents, he was of Scottish extraction. His early life was spent in Rush County, Indiana, where he first began to play the violin, furnishing the music for many a dance. While the ball was going on he was converted, ceasing to play in the middle of the piece he was performing. Very soon thereafter he entered the ministry of the Christian Church. On the 11th of January, 1855, he married Miss Martha Finley. Most of his time after entering the ministry was spent in the West and South, and on account of his wonderful vocal powers he was called the "singing evangelist."

The hymn's refrain was sung by Rod and Todd Flanders in the 1992 episode Bart the Lover of The Simpsons. [10] In the prophecies of Jeremiah: “Speak: ‘Thus declares the Lord, ‘The dead bodies of men shall fall like dung upon the open field, like sheaves after the reaper, and none shall gather them’” ( Jeremiah 9:22).

The verse from which Shaw extracted his concept was Psalm 126. The specific verses said, “He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him” ( Psalm 126:6). The Psalmist wishes to see the enemies of God not have a fruitful harvest: “Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up, with which the reaper does not fill his hand nor the binder of sheaves his arms” ( Psalm 129:6-7).

In the 1966 film Batman, this song is played by a marching band as Batman tries to dispose of a bomb. [8]
