Nothing but leaves

Appears in 122 hymnals First Line: Nothing but leaves, the Spirit grieves Lyrics: 1 Nothing but leaves, the Spirit grieves Over a wasted life; O'er us indulged while conscience slept, O'er vows and promises unkept, And reap from years of strife-- Nothing but leaves, Nothing but leaves. 2 Nothing but leaves, no gather'd sheaves Of life's fair rip'ning grain; We sow our seeds, lo! tares and weeds, Words, idle words, for earnest deeds, We reap, with toil and pain,-- Nothing but leaves. 3 Nothing but leaves, and mem'ry weaves; No vail to hide the past; And as we trace our weary way, Counting each lost and misspent day, Sadly we find at last-- Nothing but leaves. 4 Ah! who shall thus the Master meet, Bearing but withered sheaves? Ah! who shall at the Saviour's feet, Before the awful judgment-seat, Lay down, for golden sheaves, Nothing but leaves? Used With Tune: NOTHING BUT LEAVES
