Come to the Saviour
Appears in 16 hymnals First Line: Our Saviour bids the children come Refrain First Line: O Saviour! dear Saviour! Lyrics: 1 Our Saviour bids the children come;
He bids us come to him;
And, as in other days, he spreads
His arms to take us in.
Refrain:
O Saviour! dear Saviour!
O joy of the blest!
How I long to be thine,
In bright glory to shine,
And to be forever at rest.
2 Forever blessed be his name;
No earthly love like his;
O may it draw our hearts to him,
And to the world of bliss. [Refrain]
3 There may we come at last, to sing
In nobler strains his praise;
And join the little ones who stand
Before our Father's face. [Refrain]
