1. Never be late to the Sunday School class,
Come with your bright sunny faces;
Cheering your teachers and pleasing your God—
Always be found in your places.
Never be late, never be late;
Children, remember the warning:
Try to be there, always be there,
Promptly on time in the morning.
2. Ready to mingle your voices in praise,
Singing with joyful emotion;
Ready to join in the prayer that is breathed,
Bowing in humble devotion.
Never be late, never be late;
Children, remember the warning:
Try to be there, always be there,
Promptly on time in the morning.
3. Always be ready and willing to learn,
Making your duty a pleasure,
Trying to follow the Savior’s command;
Then he will give you a treasure.
Never be late, never be late;
Children, remember the warning:
Try to be there, always be there,
Promptly on time in the morning.
4. If you are faithful in all that you do,
Ever your Savior confessing,
Then will the Sabbath glide cheerfully by,
Crowning the weak with its blessing.
Never be late, never be late;
Children, remember the warning:
Try to be there, always be there,
Promptly on time in the morning.
