Representative Text

1 Come, children, come!
God bids you come!
Come, and learn to sing the story
Of the Lord of life and glory.
Come, children, come.

2 Come, children, come!
Christ bids you come!
Early seek his face and favor,
Love and serve your blessed Saviour:
Come, children, come.

3 Come, children, come!
The Spirit says come!
Come, with Zion's sons and daughters,
To the springs of living waters:
Come, children, come.

4 Come, children come;
All bid you come;
Come, unite your hearts and voices,
Listening heaven then rejoices:
Come, children, come.

5 Come, children, come;
Make heaven your home;
Then, though earthly ties may sever,
You shall live with Christ forever:
Come, children, come.
