Y en la callada noche, Los ojos al cerrar, Tu arrullo nos da alegre Y plácido soñar. 3 Jesús, mi fiel amigo, Jamás podré pagar Tu singular fineza, Tu tierno amor sin par; Mas toma, Cristo mío, En prenda de amistad, Mi corazón, que es tuyo Por una eternidad.

One of These Little Ones

Author: Susie Bradford Thompson Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Baptism First Line: Dear little pilgrim, pressing on Lyrics: 1. Dear little pilgrim, pressing on To Canaan's happy land O, can you hear your Saviour's voice, And follow his command? Yes, I will go where Jesus went, Not fearing Jordan's wave; The Well beloved the Father sent I know is strong to save. 2. My Saviour calls me to his side Lord, I will follow thee! I know thine angels still abide With little ones like me. With joy I'll go where he shall lead, My Guide he'll surely be Who gave me life and friends and home, And gave himself to me. 3. I walk the path his footsteps trod, I gaze on hill and vale His presence blessed, I view the sea Where Jesus calmed the gale; I shall be safe, kept by his power Who rules the angry wave; Tho' sorrows press and dangers lower He ever lives to save! 4. And now, by faith, in Jordan's flood Obeying his command, Saved by the water and the blood His child, redeemed, I stand! He careth for his little ones, He bids them "Come to Me. Of such as these, shall, in that day My heavenly kingdom be!" Used With Tune: [Dear little pilgrim, pressing on]
