40a. Children sing

1 Children of Jerusalem
Sang the praise of Jesus' name,
Children, too, of modern days
Join to sing the Saviour's praise.
Cheerfully, joyfully we will sing.
Loud Hosannahs to our King!

2 We are taught to love the Lord,
We are taught to read his word,
We are taught the way to heaven,
Praise for all to God be given;
Cheerfully, joyfully we will sing.
Loud Hosannahs to our King!

3 Parents, teachers, old and young,
All unite to swell the song,
Higher and yet higher rise,
Till Hosannas reach the skies.
Cheerfully, joyfully we will sing.
Loud Hosannahs to our King!
