Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, hear your children when we pray. 3 You have promised to receive us, poor and sinful though we be; you have mercy to relieve us, grace to cleanse, and power to free. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, early let us turn to you. 4 Early let us seek your favor, early let us do your will; blessed Lord and only Savior, with your love our spirits fill.

I Think, When I Read That Sweet Story of Old

Author: Mrs. Jemima Luke Meter: Irregular Appears in 859 hymnals Topics: Songs For Children Jesus' Life Lyrics: 1. I think, when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How He called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with them then. I wish that His hand had been placed on my head, That His arm had been thrown around me, And that I might have seen His kind look when He said, "Let the little ones come unto Me." 2. Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go, And ask for a share in His love; And if only I earnestly seek Him below, I shall see Him and hear Him above, In that beautiful place He has gone to prepare, For all who are washed and forgiv'n; So many dear children are gathering there, "For of such is the kingdom of heaven."
