Father, we for our children plead

Author: Thomas Hastings (1784-1872) Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, we for our children plead, The children thou hast given; Where shall we go in time of need But to the God of Heaven? 2 We ask for them not wealth or fame Amid the worldly strife: But, in the all-prevailing name, We ask eternal life. 3 We seek the Spirit’s quickening grace To make them pure in heart, That they may stand before thy face And see thee as thou art.

Gentle Jesus, meek and mild

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 243 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gentle Jesus, meek and mild, Look upon a little child, Pity my simplicity, Suffer me to come to thee. 2 Fain I would to thee be brought, Gracious Lord, forbid it not; In the Kingdom of thy grace Give a little child a place. 3 Loving Jesus, gentle Lamb, In thy gracious hands I am; Make me, Saviour, what thou art, Live thyself within my heart. 4 Lamb of God, I look to thee, Thou shalt my example be; Thou art gentle, meek and mild; Thou wast once a little child. 5 Now I would be as thou art; Give me an obedient heart; Thou art pitiful and kind, Let me have thy loving mind. 6 I shall then show forth thy praise, Serve thee all my happy days; Then the world shall always see Christ, the holy child, in me.

I think, when I read that sweet story of old

Author: Jemima Luke (1813-1906) Appears in 856 hymnals 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. 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! 2 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, In that beautiful place he is 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. 3 But thousands and thousands who wander and fall Never heard of that heavenly home; I should like them to know there is room for them all, And that Jesus has bid them to come. I long for the joys of that glorious time, The sweetest and brightest and best, When the dear little children of every clime Shall crowd to his arms and be blessèd.

When mothers of Salem

Author: William Medlen Hutchings (1827-76) Appears in 51 hymnals 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; O shine upon them from above, And show thyself a God of love! Teach the little children to come unto thee.

O the blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow, yes, I know

Author: James Conner Bateman (1855-88) Appears in 16 hymnals First Line: Come, shout and sing, make Heaven ring Lyrics: 1 Come, shout and sing, make Heaven ring With praises to our King, Who bled and died, was crucified, That he might pardon bring. His blood doth save the soul, Doth cleanse and make it whole, The blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow. Refrain: O the blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow, yes, I know! I bless the happy day, When he washed my sins away, The blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow. 2 Come, join our band, and make a stand To drive sin from our land; To do or die, our battle cry, We fight at God’s command. With banner wide unfurled, We tell to all the world: The blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow. 3 The Lord is near when foes appear, With him we shall not fear, But fight the fight for God and right, Nor count the cost too dear. Then when we come to die, We’ll shout our battle cry: The blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow. Topics: The salvation soldier Warfare

Author: William James Pearson (1832-92) Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: God is keeping his soldiers fighting Lyrics: 1 God is keeping his soldiers fighting, Evermore we shall conquerors be; All the hosts of Hell are uniting, But we’re sure to have victory. Though to beat us they’ve been trying, Our colours still are flying, And our flag shall wave for ever, For we never will give in. Refrain: No, we never, never, never will give in, No we won’t! No we won’t! No, we never, never, never will give in, For we mean to have the victory for ever. 2 We will follow our conquering Saviour, From before him Hell’s legions shall fly; Our battalions never shall waver, They’re determined to conquer or die. From holiness and Heaven We never will be driven; We will stand our ground for ever, For we never will give in. 3 With salvation for every nation, To the ends of the earth we will go, With a free and full salvation, All the power of the cross we’ll show. We’ll tear Hell’s throne to pieces, And win the world for Jesus, We’ll be conquerors for ever, For we never will give in. Topics: The salvation soldier Warfare
