11. We Come! We Come!

1 We come! we come! we come!
From mountain and from valley,
From hillside and from plain,
In Sabbath school we rally
And shout with loud acclaim.

Chorus:
Yes, we come, we come, dear teachers,
And we'll try to mind the rule
Of love and glad obedience
In our happy Sabbath school.

2 We come! we come! we come!
From homes we love so dearly,
With parents kind and true,
Our hearts and voices gladly
Unite and sing to you. [Chorus]

3 We come! we come! we come!
With smiles each other greeting,
And hearts of love for all,
We quickly take our places,
Attentive to the call. [Chorus]

4 We come! we come! we come!
A noble little army
Of soldiers on the way,
In order marching onward,
We'll hope to win the day. [Chorus]
