1 There is something on earth for the children to do,
For the child that is striving to be
Like the One who once murmured in accents of love,
"Let the little ones come unto Me."
Full Cho.-There is something to do, there is something to do,
There is something for children to do;
On the beautiful earth where the Saviour had birth
There is something for children to do.
2 There are sweet winning words to the weary and sad,
By their glad, loving lips to be said;
There are hearts that are waiting by some little hand
Unto Jesus, the Lord, to be led.
3 There are lessons to learn both at home and at school, There are battles to fight for the right,
There's a watch to be kept over temper and tongue,
And God's help to be asked day and night.
4 There are smiles to be given, kind deeds to be done,
Gentle words to be dropped by the way;
For the child that is seeking to follow the Lord
There is something to do every day.
1 We are coming, blessed Saviour,
We hear Thy gentle voice;
We would be.Thine forever,
And in Thy love rejoice.
We are coming, we are coming,
We are coming, blessed Saviour; We are coming, we are coming, We hear Thy gentle voice.
2 We are coming, blessed Saviour, Our Father's house we see
Songs for Little
Folks, p. 107.
A glorious mansion ever
For children young as we.
We are coming, &c.
Our Father's house we see.
3 We are coming, blessed Saviour,
To crown our Jesus King,
And then with angels ever
His praises we will sing.
We are coming, &c.
To crown our Jesus King.
Little children, sweetly sing
On this birth-day of our King;
Now a joyous anthem raise
In glad notes of grateful praise.
Let your joyful notes arise,
Join the chorus of the skies.
(Rep. both lines.)

See, He leaves His Father's throne,
Lays aside His starry crown,
And, to save the sons of men,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.-Cho.
