RED CROSS SONG by HILDA CONKLING

First Line: WHEN I HEARD THE BEES HUMMING IN THE HIVE
Last Line: HONEY OF LOVE!

WHEN I heard the bees humming in the hive,
They were so busy about their honey,
I said to my mother,
What can I give,
What can I give to help the Red Cross?
And Mother said to me:
You can give honey too!
Honey of smiles!
Honey of love!
