1 Come, come,
Little ones, come!
Joyously sing!
Joyously sing!
Tell God’s
Wonderful love,
Praises to him bring.

Chorus:
Joyously sing!
Joyously sing!
Little ones, bring
Praise to your King!
Tell of his love,
Wonderful love,
Tell of your Father’s love!

2 Birds, bees,
Brooklets and trees
Joyously sing!
Joyously sing!
Hark! they
Praise him today;
Children should praise, too. [Chorus]

3 Sun, moon,
Flowers and stars
Worship the King!
Worship the King!
Come, come,
Little ones, come,
Praises to him bring. [Chorus]
