1 Gentle, holy Jesus,
Savior meek and mild,
Thou who once wast fashioned
Like a little child;
2 And in grace and meekness
Up to manhood grew
Sharing human weakness,
Human sorrow, too:
3 In Thy word so holy,
Savior, we can see,
That of us Thou sayest,
Let them come to Me.
4 Glad we come! and render
All we have to give:
While our hearts are tender,
Help us, Lord, to live.
5 Like Thy young disciples,
That the world may see
We are taught by Jesus,
And have learned of Thee.
6 May we copy closely
Him we so much love,
Till we bear His likeness,
Perfected above.
