Lyrics

(Hallelujah)
Come on children, let's sing
About the goodness of the Lord (My Lord)
Come on children, let's shout
All about God's rich reward
Guide our footsteps everyday
Keeps us in the narrow way
Come on children, let's sing!
About the goodness of the lord
Yeah, come on children, let's sing!
About the goodness of the lord (My Lord)
Come on children, let's shout!
All about God's rich reward
Guide our footsteps everyday
Keeps us in the narrow way
Come on children, let's sing!
Come on children, let's shout!
How Lord almighty has brought us out
There's none like him without a doubt
Come on children, let's sing!
About the goodness of the Lord
He has been my all an' all
(Come on children, let's sing!)
He will never let me fall
(Come on children, let's shout!)
That is why I can sing
That is why I can shout
Because I know what it's all about
The goodness of, of the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, hey!
Come on children, let's sing!
About the goodness of the lord (My Lord)
Come on children, let's shout!
All about God's rich reward
Guide our footsteps everyday
Keeps us in the narrow way
Come on children, let's sing!
Come on children, let's shout!
How Lord almighty has brought us out
There's none like him without a doubt
Come on children, let's sing!
About the goodness of the Lord
