I love to sing

Author: Bethune Hymnal: The Little Minstrel #105 (1867) First Line: I love to sing when I am glad Lyrics: 1 I love to sing when I am glad, Song is the echo of my gladness; I love to sing when I am sad, Till song makes sweet my very sadness; 'Tis pleasant time, when voices shine, To some sweet rhyme, in concert only; And song to me is company, Good company when I am lonely. 2 Whene'er I greet the morning light, My song goes forth in thankful numbers, And 'mid the shadows of the night, I sing me to my welcome slumbers, My heart is stirred by each glad bird, Whose notes are heard in summer bowers; And song gives birth to friendly mirth, Around the hearth in wintry hours. 3 Man first learned song in Paradise From the bright angels o'er him singing; And in our home above the skies, Glad anthems are forever ringing. God lends his ear, well pleased to hear The songs that cheer his children's sorrow; Till day shall break, and we shall wake Where love will make unfading morrow. Languages: English Tune Title: [I love to sing when I am glad]
