Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: Gospel Herald in Song #173 (1899) First Line: Birds are singing, flow'rbells ringing Refrain First Line: Bring the blossoms, smiling blossoms Lyrics: 1 Birds are singing, flow’rbells ringing,
On the Children’s Day in June;
Voices blending, songs ascending,
Happy hearts are all in tune.
Refrain:
Bring the blossoms, smiling blossoms,
Pinks and daisies, lilies fair;
Love’s sweet off’ring, willing off’ring,
Consecrated lives shall bear.
2 Roses blushing, streamlets gushing,
Sunbeams glancing from above;
Waving banners, glad hosannas,
Tell our gratitude and love. [Refrain]
3 Hearts are burning, lessons learning
From the birds, the brooks, the flow’rs;
Joy and beauty wait on duty,
Say the summer’s balmy hours. [Refrain]
4 Blessed Savior, grant Thy favor,
While our loving praises swell;
Then Thy children, trusting children,
Shall Thy grace and goodness tell. [Refrain] Topics: Children's Day; Springtime Scripture: Habakkuk 3:18 Languages: English Tune Title: [Birds are singing, flow'rbells ringing]
