258. Where is the Holy Jesus?

1 Where is the Holy Jesus?
He lives in Heav'n above.
He looks upon good children,
With tenderness and love.

2 Where is the Holy Jesus?
His home is everywhere,
He loves that little children
Should speak to Him in prayer.

3 Once He came down from Heaven;
He came a little child;
He was so good and gentle,
Obedient, meek, and mild.

4 He had no naughty temper,
He said no angry word;
And all good little children
Should be like Christ their Lord.

5 For He will make them holy,
And teachable and mild,
And has sent His Blessed Spirit
To every Christian child.

6 Then every night and morning
When I kneel down to pray,
I will ask the Holy Jesus,
To help me day by day.

Amen.
