There's a friend for little children

Author: A. Midlane Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #553a (1894) Meter: 7.6 D Topics: For Children Lyrics: 1 There's a friend for little children Above the bright blue sky, A friend Who never changes, Whose love will never die; Our earthly friends may fail us, And change with changing years, This friend is always worthy Of that dear Name He bears. 2 There's a rest for little children Above the bright blue sky, Who love the blessed Saviour, And to the Father cry; A rest from every turmoil, From sin and sorrow free, Where every little pilgrim Shall rest eternally. 3 There's a home for little children Above the bright blue sky, Where Jesus reigns in glory, A home of peace and joy; No home on earth is like it, Nor can with it compare; For every one is happy Nor could be happier there. 4 There's a song for little children Above the bright blue sky, A song that will not weary, Though sung continually; A song which even angels Can never, never sing; They know not Christ as Saviour, But worship Him as King. 5 There's a crown for little children Above the bright blue sky, And all who look for Jesus Shall wear it by and by; All, all above is treasured, And found in Christ alone. Lord, grant Thy little children To know Thee as their own. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a friend for little children]

When mothers of Salem their children brought to Jesus

Author: W. M. Hutchings, 1827-1876 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #613a (1917) Topics: Love Of Jesus for Children Lyrics: 1 When mothers of Salem their children brought to Jesus, The stern disciples drove them back, and bade them depart; But Jesus saw them ere they fled, and sweetly smiled and kindly said, "Suffer little children to come unto Me. 2 "For I will receive them and fold them to My bosom: I'll be a shepherd to these lambs, O, drive them not away; For if their hearts to Me they give, they shall with Me in glory live: Suffer little children to come unto Me." 3 How kind was our Saviour to bid these children welcome! But there are many thousands who have never heard His name; The Bible they have never read, they know not that the Saviour said, "Suffer little children to come unto Me." 4 O, soon may the heathen of every tribe and nation Fulfil Thy blessed Word and cast their idols all away! O, shine upon them from above, and show Thyself a God of love, Teach the little children to come unto Thee! Languages: English Tune Title: SALEM
