❄️❄️🌸[Lyrics below] [Norske under] This song about an unknown angel sowing snow, so that flowers can bloom in spring, was published in 1882:6 in "Hours of singing: a collection of new music for juvenile classes, public schools, seminaries and the home circle" by A. J. Showalter and A. S. Keiffer (https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?i....
The composer - and presumably also the lyricist - is Anthony Johnson Showalter (1858 – 1924). He was an American gospel music composer, teacher and publisher.
Co-editor Aldine Silliman Kieffer (1840–1904), was a leading 19th century proponent of shape note musical notation, a music teacher and publisher. Kieffer used his own songbooks in the schools where he taught.
The illustration is from an original Easter postcard around the 1900s, with some slight digital editing by me. The Angel is seen sowing what seems to be snow and/or the flowers to come in spring.
The concept of "sowing snow" seems a bit odd at first, but of course the snow is a part of the cycle of water, from the rain and snow on the ground to the rivers that go out to sea and where the sun makes water evaporate and elevate to the skies, again falling as rain. Without this circle of water, not much would grow or bloom.
Here are the words:
In the bright red of the sunset glow,
O'er the cold, the cold bleak world,
Moves the good Angel whom none may know,
Sowing the snow, Sowing the snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white snow.
Deadens and dies the sunset glow,
And the white, the white pure night,
A presence is filling to overflow,
Sowing the snow, Sowing the snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white snow.
Strange such seeds to the winds to throw,
Yet the spring, the spring would bring
Little of bloom did not spirit go
Sowing the snow, Sowing the snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white, beautiful snow.
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the snow,
Sowing the pure, white, beautiful snow.
Repeat first verse.

Jeg gjendiktet versene til norsk den 18.01.2026:
I solnedgangens røde glød,
Over jorda gold og kald,
Går en god engel som sår ut snø;
Sår ut fin snø, sår ut fin snø.
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste snø.
Og i mens solnedgangen dør,
I den hvite, hvite natt
Fyller en skikkelse opp med snø;
Sår ut fin snø, sår ut fin snø.
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste snø.
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste snø.
Rart slike frø i vinden strø,
Men *- Uten dem vil all ting dø.
Våren vil komme hit pø om pø;
Sår ut fin snø, sår ut fin snø.
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste, fine snø.
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut fin snø,
Sår ut den hviteste, fine snø.
*Tilpasses melodien, legges til punkteringen i siste slag i takt to.
