The summer is coming, the honeybees humming, And seeking the blossoms they love; Each morning discloses a new wealth of roses, Green branches are bending above.

Praise God in the highest! O praise Him today! O praise Him today! O praise Him today! With flow’rs of affection He’s strewing our way, O praise Him, O praise Him today.

Praise God in the highest! O praise Him today! O praise Him today! O praise Him today! With flow’rs of affection He’s strewing our way, O praise Him, O praise Him today.
