| 1. Singing, singing, light and free,
As the merry birds are we;
For a precious Friend is near,
Bending now our song to hear.
Refrain.
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He;
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He.
2. Singing, singing all the day,
As the moments glide away;
Ever grateful for His care
And the tender love we share.
Refrain.
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He;
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He.
3. Singing, singing, O how sweet,
Resting at the Savior’s feet;
Looking up with joyful eyes,
To His dwelling in the skies.
Refrain.
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He;
Very thankful we should be,
For a Friend so dear as He.
