At the Dedication of Children

Author: Doddridge Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCCXIV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: See Israel's gentle shepherd stand Lyrics: 1 See Israel's gentle shepherd stand With all engaging charms; Hark, how he calls the tender lambs, And takes them in his arms. 2 "Permit them to approach, he cries, Nor scorn their humble name; For 'twas to bless such souls as these, The Lord of angels came." 3 We bring them, Lord, in thankful hands, And yield them up to thee; Joyful, that we ourselves are thine, Thine let our offspring be. 4 Ye little flock, with pleasure hear: Ye children, seek his face; And fly with transport to receive The blessings of his grace. 6 If orphans they are left behind, Thy guardian care we trust: That care shall heal our bleeding hearts, If weeping o'er their dust.
