Author: J. S. Stallybrass; C. A. Döring Hymnal: Concordia #54 (1918) Topics: Childhood Lyrics: 1 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Bless the young before Thee;
Thou their wants and dangers know'st,
Watch them, we implore Thee.
Here they stand,
Hopeful band,
Faith in Thee confessing,
Waiting for Thy blessing.
2 Gentle Savior, they are Thine,
Thou wilt never lose them;
May Thy life and love divine
Melt their tender bosom.
Lord, we pray
That they may
All, like Thee, be holy,
Loving, meek, and lowly.
3 Giver Thou of gifts to all,
No good thing deny them:
Hear, O hear our earnest call,
Life and light supply them.
Strength renew,
Keep them true;
All that stand before Thee,
Bless them, we implore Thee.
