1 Today, in the bright summer meadows
The daisies are calling to you,
They glow in the bright, golden sunshine,
All glist’ning with diamonds of dew.

Chorus:
Daisies! Daisies! Beautiful daisies we bring you,
Petals of white,
So pure and so bright,
Kissed by the sunshine above.
Daisies! Daisies! Praises of daisies we sing you—
Hearts of pure gold,
That a message unfold,
Whispering, “God is love.”

2 So modest and pure are these blossoms,
A lesson they bring from above,
They bid us be gentle and humble,
And trust in God’s mercy and love. [Chorus]
