We Can Tell

Little child­ren

one and all

We have heard the Sav­ior call;

In our hearts we hear Him say

Keep the holy Sab­bath day.

In His word

we have heard

Why we ought to love and praise Him;

We can tell why the bell

Sweetly

sweet­ly

rings to­day.

Jesus came from Heav’n ab­ove

Bringing par­don

peace and love;

He was slain by cru­el men

But the Sav­ior lives again.

From the grave He rose to­day;

This is why we meet to pray;

This is why we have to sing

Glory to our Sav­ior King.

Very grate­ful we should be

For His ten­der love so free;

Very sor­ry when we stray

From the pure and per­fect way.
