Representative Text

1 Now our pennies bringing,
All of us are singing;
Cheerful givers we will be
For the Sunday School;
Each of us a penny,
Not a few but many,
We can see and count them, too,
For the Sunday School.

Refrain:
Every one, every one,
Every one has brought a penny;
Every one, every one,
For our Sunday School.

2 Eyes are beaming brightly,
Pennies dropping lightly,
Give a nickel, then a dime,
For our Sunday School;
Dimes will soon be dollars;
Though put little scholars,
Let us try what we can do
For our Sunday School. [Refrain]

3 He who, ever near us,
Loves to help and cheer us
When we do the best we can
For our Sunday School—
Looks at every penny,
Not forgetting any,
Dropping from our little hands
For the Sunday School. [Refrain]
