“we sing as we go.” This song helps them think of ways to help “mother” and they can sing it “father” and “brother” and “sister” and “grandmother” and “grandfather” or any person they want to help. This song helps them to think about helping others as Jesus would. This will make them happy and their family and friends happy too.

Lyrics

1. When we’re helping, we’re happy,
   And we sing as we go;
   And we like to help mother*,
   For we all love her so.
2. Tra la la la la la la,
   Tra la la la la la,
   Tra la la la la la la,
   Tra la la la la la.
