I Think When I Read That Sweet Story

Author: Jemima Luke Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #320 (1999) Meter: 11.8.12.9 with refrain First Line: I think when I read that sweet story of old Lyrics: 1 I think when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How He called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with them then. 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 is gone to prepare, For all that are lost 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."
