1 Welcome, welcome, gladly welcome,
To the children’s Jubilee;
Here we meet, with joy to greet you,
Happy meeting may it be;
May our hearts be overflowing,
Full of joyous melody;
Each to each our love be showing,
’Tis the children’s Jubilee.
Refrain:
Welcome, welcome,
Welcome, yes, welcome,
Happy welcome to all, yes to all;
Welcome, welcome,
Welcome, yes, welcome,
Happy welcome to all, yes to all.
2 Welcome, welcome, sweetly welcome!
Songs of joy, and beams of light;
Gild the golden ties of friendship,
Blending all our hearts tonight;
Sweetly may the strains of music,
Fill our minds with thoughts sublime;
Lift us higher, make us purer,
All our hearts in love combine. [Refrain]
3 Welcome, welcome! Parents, teachers,
Freely join our songs of glee,
Banish every thought of sadness,
’Tis the children’s Jubilee.
Who may sing, if not the children?
Let us join their merry song;
Youthful hearts may utter praises,
Glad’ning even the angel throng. [Refrain]
4 Welcome! welcome! singing welcome!
Thanks we raise, O Lord, to Thee!
Thou hast kindly, gently led us,
Brought us to our Jubilee.
When we come to Jordan’s river,
Gazing on the other shore,
May we find a hearty welcome,
Welcome where we’ll part no more. [Refrain]
