Tune: | [When the lavish hand of summer] |
Composer: | C. E. Koch |
1 When the lavish hand of summer,
Decks the earth in fair array,
Radiant with golden sunshine,
Comes the welcome Children’s Day.
Refrain:
Welcome, welcome Children’s Day,
Happy, happy Children’s Day;
In the time of birds and blossoms
Comes the welcome Children’s Day.
2 When the roses scent the breezes
Which among them softly stray,
And when arching skies are bluest,
Comes the welcome Children’s Day. [Refrain]
3 When the merry birds are singing
Over nests their sweetest lay,
Filling woodlands green with music,
Comes the welcome Children’s Day. [Refrain]
4 When all nature is rejoicing
Children’s voices, fresh and gay,
In the Savior’s praise are blending
On their welcome festal day. [Refrain]
