8997. Singing, Gladly Singing

1 Who will join our "Junior Band"?
Singing, gladly singing;
Marching on to Canaan’s land,
Praise to Jesus bringing.

Refrain:
Who will join our band today?
Who is ready now to say,
"I will walk the narrow way,
Singing, gladly singing."

2 Soldiers of the cross are we,
Singing, gladly singing;
Faithful would we ever be,
Praise to Jesus bringing. [Refrain]

3 By a loving Savior led,
Singing, gladly singing;
Brighter grows the path we tread,
Praise to Jesus bringing. [Refrain]

4 In that world of light and love,
Singing, gladly singing,
Soon we’ll join the host above,
Praise to Jesus bringing. [Refrain]
