10350. This Is Children's Day

1 Here again our friends we meet,
Bringing flowers rich and sweet,
Laying them at Jesus’ feet,
On this children’s day.

Refrain:
This is happy children’s day,
Children’s day, children’s day;
Hear the brook and fountain say,
This is children’s day.

2 Gleaners all and glad are we,
Faithful toilers full of glee,
Bringing hearts and songs to Thee,
On this children’s day. [Refrain]

3 As these flowers of beauteous hue,
May our lives be pure and true,
Fragrant actions may we do,
From this children’s day. [Refrain]
