1 Flow’rs and sunshine gild the pathway,
Birds their sweetest carols sing,
Children’s voices join the chorus,
Praises to the King they bring.
Refrain:
Lift your voices, lift your voices
In a sweetly sounding lay;
Sing His praises, sing His praises,
As you journey on the way,
Lift your voices, lift your voices
In a sweetly sounding lay,
Tell His goodness, tell His goodness
On this Children’s Day.
2 Birds and blossoms tell the story
Of the Father’s tender care,
Through the storms of Winter keeping
Till the dawn of springtime fair. [Refrain]
3 Sweet the bird notes soft repeating,
Tell of mercies from above;
And the gentle breezes murmur
God is kind, for God is love. [Refrain]
