1 Juniors, happy Juniors singing all the day,
Happy in our labors, happy in our play
Scatt’ring rays of sunshine all the path along,
Ev’ry day more cheery with a tuneful song.

2 Juniors, happy Juniors striving each to do
What the blessed Master ever wants us to,
Working for His glory, helping those who’re sad,
Ev’ry ;moment helping make somebody glad.

3 Juniors, happy Juniors praying as we go;
Wishing our companions, Jesus, too, might know;
Shining for the Master as He bids us shine
Shedding forth reflections of the One Divine.
