1 He who always is in time,
In bad weather and sunshine,
He who's always clean and neat,
And in silence takes his seat.
Chorus:
That's the scholar who is good,
And would bring in if he could,
Ev'ry child from off the street,
In the Sabbath School to meet.
2 He's a scholar good and wise,
Who the sabbath school does prize.
And begins in youth to love,
He who came from heav'n above. [Chorus]
3 He's a scholar good and just
And whom ev'ry one can trust,
That obeys with joy each rule,
Of the holy Sabbath School. [Chorus]
4 He's the scholar best of all,
Who obeys the Saviour's call,
Spending life in acts of love,
Winning souls to heav'n above. [Chorus]
