Author: Maud Frazer Hymnal: Life Songs #151 (1916) First Line: Long ago when Christ our Saviour Refrain First Line: There's a welcome for the children Lyrics: 1 Long ago when Christ our Saviour
Did upon this earth abide,
He did not forget the children,
But He called them to His side.
Refrain:
There's a welcome for the children,
In the Saviour's loving heart;
There's a welcome for the children,
In His love they have a part.
2 This dear Saviour still is living,
Tho' His form we cannot see;
Still His gentle voice is calling,
"Let the children come to me." [Refrain]
3 Come, ye children, come to Jesus;
He will hear you when you pray;
He will kindly guide your footsteps
In the shining upward way. [Refrain]
4 Little ones of ev'ry nation
Doth the blessed Lord invite,
Rich or poor, it does not matter,
All are precious in His sight. [Refrain] Topics: Children's Songs Christ's Love for Children; Christ Love of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: [Long ago when Christ our Saviour]
