On Joyful Wing ‎#38

38. Dropping Pennies

1 Hear the pennies dropping,
Listen while they fall,
Ev’ry one for Jesus,
He will get them all.

Refrain:
Dropping, dropping, dropping, dropping,
Hear the pennies falls;
Ev’ry one for Jesus,
He will get them all.

2 Dropping, dropping ever,
From each little hand,
‘Tis our gift to Jesus,
From his little band. [Refrain]

3 Now, while we are little,
Pennies are our store,
But, when we are older,
Lord, we’ll give thee more. [Refrain]

4 Though we have not money,
We can give him love,
He will own our off’ring,
Smiling from above. [Refrain]
