I think when I read that sweet story of old,
When Jesus was here among men,
How he called little children as lambs to His fold,
I should like to have been with them then.
I should like to have been with them then,
I should like to have been with them then,
How he called little children as lambs to His fold,
I should like to have been with them then.I wish that His hands had been
placed on my head,
That his arm had been thrown around me;
And that I might have seen His kind look when He said,
"Let the little one come unto Me."
"Let the little one come unto Me",
"Let the little one come unto Me";
And that I might have seen His kind look when He said,
"Let the little one come unto Me."
Yet to His foot-stool in prayer I may go,
And ask for a share in His love;
And if I now earnestly seek Him below,
I shall see Him and hear Him above.
I shall see Him and hear Him above,
I shall see Him and hear Him above,
And if I now earnestly seek Him below,
I shall see Him and hear Him above.
In that beautiful place He has gone to prepare,
For all that are washed and forgiv'n,
And many dear children are gathering there,
"For of such is the Kingdom of Heav'n."
"For of such is the Kingdom of Heav'n.",
"For of such is the Kingdom of Heav'n.",
And many dear children are gathering there,
"For of such is the Kingdom of Heav'n." |
