Author: Jennie Wilson Hymnal: Uplifted Voices #158 (1901) Lyrics: 1 In the shady woodlands, Sweet it is to roam, When in golden splendor Summer days have come. Refrain: In the shady woodlands, ‘Mong the sylvan bow’rs, Sweet it is to wander, Spending happy hours. 2 ‘Mong the leafy treetops, All the bright day long, Joyous little wild birds Flood the air with song. [Refrain] 3 There the laughing brooklets Babble on their way, Where cool reeds and willows O’er their waters sway. [Refrain] 4 Soft wind-music murmurs Through the forest aisles, While glad woodland voices Answer Summer’s smiles. [Refrain] Tune Title: [In the shady woodlands]
