Climb up ye little children,
Climb up ye older people,
Climb up t othe sky.
Now is your chance for heaven
Climb up in six and seven
Climb up ye children, climb!
1. [Solo] Jacob dream'd he saw a ladder,
[All] Reaching for the sky
[Solo] Angel climb up and down it,
[All] Climb up children, high.
2. [Solo] If you want to go to heaven,
[All] Now's the happy time.
[Solo] Pray and have your sins forgiven,
[All] Climb up children, climb.
