Refrain: 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. 2 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 ones come unto Me." Refrain: "Let the little ones come unto Me, Let the little ones come unto Me;" And that I might have seen His kind look when He said, "Let the little ones come unto Me." 3 Yet still to His footstool 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. Refrain: 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. 4 In that beautiful place He has gone to prepare, For all who are washed and forgiven; And many dear children are gathering there, For "Of such is the kingdom of heaven." Refrain: For "Of such is the kingdom of heaven," For "Of such is the kingdom of heaven;" And many dear children are gathering there, For "Of such is the kingdom of heaven."

So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heaven. No ear may hear his coming: but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him, still the dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin, and enter in; be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell: O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN
