Of Him who left His home above, Children sing ! Children sing ! Our blessed Saviour crowned with love, Children sing to-day ! Of Him whose ever-watchful care Will guard our feet from every snare, Who loves to hear our earnest prayer, Children sing to-day !
2. Of joy and gladness through His name, Children sing ! Children sing ! And peace to all the world proclaim, Children sing to-day ! Redemption now from death and sin, From foes without and foes within, Of life eternal all may win, Children sing to-day !
3. Of Him who did salvation bring, Children sing ! Children sing I He is our Shepherd, Priest, and King, Children sing to-day ! Of loved ones in the heavenly land, Who ever in His presence stand, With yonder shining angel band, Children sing to-day !
