1. Let children hear the mighty deeds
Which God performed of old,
Which in our younger days we saw,
And which our parents told.
2. So make to them His glories known,
His works of pow'r and grace;
And we'll convey His wonders down
Through ev'ry rising race.
3. Our sons and daughters we shall tell
And they again to theirs
That generations yet unborn
May teach them to their heirs.

5. To learn that in our God alone
Their hope securely stands,
That they may never doubt His love
But walk in His commands.
