201. Give Him Praise

1 Ev’ry little bird that sings,
Flitting on shining wings,
True and sweet its carol rings,
Gives sweet praise to Jesus.

Refrain:
We will give our Savior praise,
Love and serve Him all our days;
Give Him praise, yes give Him praise,
Give our praise to Jesus.

2 In the meadows where they grow,
By the streams that gently flow,
All the flow’rs that bud and blow,
Give sweet praise to Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Ev’ry insect that we see,
Ev’ry butterfly and bee,
Poised aloft on wing so free,
Gives sweet praise to Jesus. [Refrain]

4 We are more than bird or bee,
Or the lovely flow'rs we see;
For his goodness now will we
Give sweet praise to Jesus. [Refrain]
