Forward, Children, Forward
Author: A. N. Blatchford Hymnal: The Service of Praise #7 (1900) Refrain First Line: Forward, children Lyrics: 1 Forward, children, forward,
Life is dawning bright;
Leave the night behind you
Onward into light!
Heav’nly voices call you
Hearken and obey,
God himself shall lead you
Surely day by day.
Refrain:
Forward, children,
Life is dawning bright,
Onward, children,
Onward into light;
Heav’nly voices call you,
Hearken and obey,
God himself shall lead you,
Surely day by day.
2 Breezy spring may languish,
Fade the summer sun,
Autumn rich, and winter
Round and round may run:
Still thro’ falling seasons
Love shall safe abide,
Lasting as the mountain
Steadfast as the tide. [Refrain]
3 Childhood’s golden morning
Breaks in manhood’s day;
Life’s high noon is fleeting
Age knows no delay;
Waken, children, waken!
Gather wisdom’s word;
Follow Christ you leader
Learn to know the Lord. [Refrain]
4 Days of toil are coming,
Hours, perchance, of pain;
Conflicts where the mighty
Sink upon the plain,
Learn to bear you bravely;
Lean on God alway;
Ere the stress of battle
Children, watch and pray. [Refrain]
5 Soon we’ll stand triumphant,
Sin and danger o’er,
Never more to sever
On a brighter shore.
There we’ll serve our Father,
Saintly souls among,
There we’ll bless his mercy
In a nobler song. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Forward, children, forward]
