June Praises

Representative Text

1 Sing, children sing, these happy golden hours;
June, lovely June, comes with bud and flow'rs,
See the tiny buds, unfolding ev'ry hour;
Trees all dressed in green, woods and shady bow'rs.

Chorus:
Sing! children sing!
Sing! children sing!
As we go, to and fro, light and gay;
Sing! children sing!
Sing! children sing!
Merrily, cheerily, hearts so full and free.

2 On sunny hills the blossomed beauties grow,
Roses and flow'rs greet us as we go,
Cheery happy songs, sweet singing birds in June,
Sounding from the trees, joyfully in tune. [Chorus]

3 Sing, carols sweet, all nature joins the song,
Ring, joybells ring, swell the mighty throng;
Roses fresh and sweet, all silvered o'er with dew;
Fragrance in the air, beauties all for you. Chorus]
