Author: Thomas Benson Pollock Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #569 (1917) Meter: 7.7.7.6 Hymnal Title: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church Lyrics: 1 Jesus, from Thy throne on high,
Far above the bright blue sky,
Look on us with loving eye:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
2 Little hearts may love Thee well,
Little lips Thy love may tell,
Little hymns Thy praises swell:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
3 Be Thou with us every day,
In our work and in our play,
When we learn and when we pray:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
4 May we grow from day to day,
Glad to learn each holy way,
Ever ready to obey:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
5 May our thoughts be undefiled;
May our words be true and mild;
Make us each a holy child:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
6 Jesus, Son of God Most High,
Who didst in a manger lie,
Who upon the Cross didst die:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
7 Jesus, from Thy heavenly throne,
Watching o'er each little one,
Till our life on earth is done:
Hear us, Holy Jesus.
Amen. Topics: Hymns for Children Languages: English Tune Title: [Jesus, from Thy throne on high]
