Pearls of Praise ‎#20

20. Children's Jubilee

1 The Sunday-school army is marching along,
With banners unfurled and with chorus and song;
Our hearts are so happy, so light and so free,
We’re coming, dear Savior, to glorify thee.

Refrain:
All glory to Jesus, come, wait at the cross,
While serving the Savior we’ll suffer no loss;
His yoke is so easy, his burden so light,
We’ll boldly go forward, he’ll lead us aright.

2 The journey grows shorter, our leader is true,
All glory to Jesus, our home is in view;
By faith we’ll go onward, and hope for a crown,
In yonder bright country of wondrous renown. [Refrain]

3 Dear scholars and teachers, we’ll sing our glad lay,
And follow the Savior in wisdom’s blest way;
Of faith, hope and charity, labor and love,
From conflict and sorrow to glory above. [Refrain]
