| Text: | Birthday Song |
| Author: | E. E. Hewitt |
| Tune: | [For our pleasant birthdays] |
| Composer: | D. B. Towner |
1 For our pleasant birthdays,
While we gladly sing,
For our years so happy,
Lord, our gifts we bring;
For thy love, dear Saviour,
For thy tender care,
Thankful hearts we give thee,
Hear our birthday pray'r.
2 Many little children
Now are sick or sad,
These will we remember,
Help to make them glad;
May we truly love thee,
Thy dear children be;
Take our lives, Lord Jesus,
All our days for thee.
