Author: I. F. L. Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Birds singing in the tree tops,
Flow’rs blooming in the grass,
Close by the shady pathways,
Where children love to pass.
2 Clouds floating high above us,
Boats sailing out to sea,
Far from the sandy seashore,
Where children love to be.
3 Hill, mountain, field and valley,
Each one in beauty drest;
And all the spreading shade-trees,
Where children love to rest.
4 These all make happy summer,
God’s gift—the great outdoors;
He made the trees and flowers,
The sea and sandy shores.
