Representative Text

1 Little children all can give
Kindly words of cheer;
They can help by notes of song
All the toilers here.

Chorus:
Yes, yes, yes,
Gentle words and notes of song;
Yes, yes, yes,
Thy can help along.

2 Little children all can do
Gentle, loving deeds;
Patient acts in kindness done,
Everybody needs. [Chorus]

3 By and by, when older grown,
Greater things to do;
Surely will the harvest be
Noble, good and true. [Chorus]
