1 Growing up for Jesus, we are truly blest;
In His smile is welcome, in His arms our rest;
In His truth our treasure, in His love our rule;
Growing up for Jesus in our Sunday-school.
Refrain:
Growing up for Jesus, till in Him complete;
Growing up for Jesus, oh, His work is sweet;
In His truth our treasure, in His love our rule;
Growing up for Jesus in our Sunday-school.
2 Not too young to love Him, little hearts beat true;
Not too young to serve Him as the dewdrops do;
Not too young to praise Him, singing as we come;
Not too young to answer when He calls us home. [Refrain]
3 Growing up for Jesus, learning day by day;
How to follow onward in the narrow way;
Seeking holy treasure, finding precious truth;
Growing up for Jesus in our happy youth. [Refrain]
