When so many hearts are sad?
We are little friends of Jesus,
That is why we are so glad.
Refrain:
We are little friends, we are loving friends,
We are happy, happy little friends of Jesus;
We are little friends, we are loving friends,
We are happy all day long.
2 Jesus loves the children dearly,—
In his Word he tells them so;
Once he took them up and blessed them,
Many, many years ago. [Refrain]
3 We are little lambs of Jesus;
He, our Shepherd kind and dear,
Speaks, and, though we do not see him,
In our hearts his voice we hear. [Refrain]
4 If we try our best to please him
He will take us by and by
Where our spirit eyes will know him,
Far beyond the starry sky. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Do you know what makes us happy]
