1 Have you heard of the Savior dear,
How He came when the star shown clear,
While the angels sang far and near,
He’s the One that the children love.

Refrain:
Yes, He is the One that the children love,
Jesus, the Lord of Glory;
Sing praises till all the skies above,
Ring out with the glad, sweet story;
Yes, He is the one that the children love,
And He loves the children too;
No friend can we find, so tender and kind,
The One that the children love.

2 Many years walked He here below,
Lifting those who had fallen low,
And releaving their pain and woe;
He’s the One that the children love. [Refrain]

3 Now He sits at the Father’s hand,
Men and angels at His command,
Over yonder in that Fair Land,
He’s the One that the children love. [Refrain]
