Sing, Ye Children, To The Lord

Author: P. C. Paulsen Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing, ye children, to the Lord From your heart with one accord; Praise His care and love for you, He is always kind and true. 2 Ev'ry day the Lord is near, Also when the storms appear, Never we are left alone, He is watching o'er His own. 3 When the night is dark and drear Dangers lurking far and near, Angels from our home on high Come to be His children nigh. 4 Day of brightness and delight Dawns for children after night, When at work and when at play, Jesus is their Joy and Stay. 5 Ev'ry day His love is new, And His care is sure and true; With His eye He guards our steps, Watching over hearts and lips. 6 Unto Him above the skies We will lift adoring eyes, Thank Him for His care and love, Coming from His throne above.
