1 “Child of my love” I hear Him say,
“Why will you longer go astray?
Come ere the dews of even fall,
Safe in the fold, there’s room for all.”

Refrain:
“Come, come, child of my love,”
Hear the Saviour call;
“Come, come,” Lord I come,
Take my life, my all.

2 “Child of my love your Saviour own,
Surely you cannot walk alone;
Many a sorrow you must bear,
I will your heavy burdens share.” [Refrain]

3 “Child of my love, my grace is free,
Why will you still a wand’rer be?
Sharp were the thorns for you I wore,
Come unto me, and roam no more.” [Refrain]
