Gladly will We Sing for Jesus

Hymnal: Junior Songs #105 (1892) Refrain First Line: Ever will we own our Saviour Lyrics: 1 Gladly will we sing for Jesus, Sing our happy songs; Praises will we give to Jesus, With our youthful tongues; Our hosannas loud shall echo Over sea and land; Jesus is the Friend of children, Leads us by the hand. Chorus: Ever will we own our Saviour, And walk in all his ways; Ever will we own our Saviour, And sing our songs of praise. 2 Glady will we sing for Jesus, All our earthly days; Give ourselves entirely to him, Learn his holy ways; Even from our early childhood Till our life here ends, Will we try to love and serve him, Foll'wing his commands. [Chorus] 3 Gladly will we die in Jesus, Leaning on his breast; With his loving arms around us, Sweet will be our rest: Then we'll ever be with Jesus, With that happy throng, Mingling in the heav'nly chorus Our triumphant song. [Chorus] Scripture: Psalm 100:2 Languages: English Tune Title: [Gladly will we sing for Jesus]
