The Sunday-school, the Sunday-school

Hymnal: Kind Words #93d (1871) First Line: Dear friends, with joy we meet you here Lyrics: 1 Dear friends, with joy we meet you here. On this our festive day; To thank God for the Sunday-school, O join our simple lay. Chorus: The Sunday-school, the Sunday-school, God bless our Sunday-school, For there I learn the golden rule, In our dear Sunday-school. 2 'Tis there we learn how Jesus died, To save our ruin'd race; How he was mock'd and crucified, That we might share his grace. [Chorus] 3 While teachers look to God in pray'r, His blessing to impart, Oh may the lessons taught us there Be graven on each heart. [Chorus] 4 When spring with verdure clothes the scene, When summer breezes blow, 'Mid winter's snows and tempests keen, To Sunday-school we'll go. [Chorus] Languages: English
