Tune: AWAY TO SABBATH SCHOOL
Published in 38 hymnals

Representative Text

1 The morning sky is bright and clear,
Away to Sabbath school;
Let each one in the class appear,
Away to Sabbath school;
'Tis there we learn his holy word,
And find the road that leads to God.
Away, away, away, away,
Away to Sabbath school.

Scholars:
2 When each at night shall go to prayer,
We'll ask our God above.
T' extend o'er teachers his kind care,
And crown them with his love.
And when on earth our time is sped,
And we are numbered with the dead,

Scholars and Teachers:
If faithful, we shall meet above,
We all shall meet above.
