1. The little trees are growing,
Out in the forest wild;
They tell a happy story
To ev’ry little child.
Refrain:
Higher still, and higher,
We’ll be rising, too;
Learning more of Jesus,
Lessons sweet and true.
2. The little vines are climbing,
Still higher in the light;
They grow in rain and sunshine,
More beautiful and bright.
3. O, like the dear child Jesus,
May we, from day to day,
In grace and goodness growing,
The Father’s Word obey.
