262. He Called a Little Child

1 “He called a little child,”—
The Lord Who loves us so,—
Called children to His side,
To bless them, long ago.

Refrain:
“He called a little child,”—
He calleth you and me;
Lord, keep us at Thy side,
That we may faithful be.

2 “He called a little child,”—
He loves the children still,—
Our Saviour meek and mild!
O, let us do His will. [Refrain]

3 In night-time and in day,
Our little life He sees;
O, let us ever pray,
That we our Lord may please. [Refrain]
