With this child we now draw near in response to your own saying that to you it shall be given as a child and heir of heaven. 2 Your command is clear and plain. and we would obey it duly: "You must all be born again, heart and life renewing truly, born of water and the Spirit, and my kingdom thus inherit." 3 This is why we come to you in our arms this infant bearing; Lord, to us your glory show; Let this child, your mercy sharing, in your arms be shielded ever, yours on earth and yours forever. 4 Gracious Head, your member own; Shepherd, take your lamb and feed it; Prince of Peace, make here your throne; way of life, to heaven lead it; Precious vine, let nothing sever from your side this branch forever. 5 Now into your heart we pour prayers that from our hearts proceeded. Our petitions heav'nward soar; may our fond desires be heeded! Write the name we now have given; write it in the book of heaven!
