Gently, Gently, Kneel and Pray

Gently

gent­ly kneel and pray

Gently come and go;

Jesus Christ is watch­ing us

He would have it so.

Gently

gent­ly shine the stars

Gently grow the flow­ers

Gently smiles the love of God

And His love is ours!

Kindly

kind­ly speak to all

At our work or play;

Jesus Christ can al­ways hear

Every word we say.

Dearly

dear­ly let us love

Every one we know—

Brothers

sis­ters

friends we are—

Jesus makes us so.

Sweetly

sweet­ly sing the praise

Of our glo­ri­ous king

With our hearts and with our voice;

Jesus hears us sing.
