I Am A Little Child, 'Tis True
Author: Randall H. Ballantyne Meter: 8.6.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: I am a little child, ’tis true Lyrics: 1 I am a little child, ’tis true,
Yet something surely I may do
To make the Savior known;
In love He has redeemed my soul,
He found me sick, He made me whole,
And sealed me for His own.
2 And can I see the heathen die,
And use no means to bring them nigh,
Nor Gospel message send?
Can I enjoy my Father’s smile,
And never think that, all the while,
They have no Savior friend?
3 Ah no! this would not be like Him
Who died all nations to redeem;
And who has bid us pray,
That all may know the love of God,
And all be washed in Jesus’ blood,
Which takes their sins away.
4 And though I’ve little to bestow,
Yet given willingly, I know
The little I can send,
Will be as pleasing in His sight,
As was the poor old widow’s mite,
Which Jesus did commend.
5 Then let me never think or say,
That I’m too young a child to pray,
Or give for Jesus’ sake:
If done from love to Him alone,
The feeblest effort He will own,
And all the glory take. Used With Tune: EL NIÑO Text Sources: Pasture for Lambs (Edinburgh: John Johnstone, 1849)
