1 Little hearts can love the Saviour,
Little hearts, little hearts;
Little hearts can love the Saviour
With affection pure.

Chorus:
Saviour, Saviour,
Saviour bless Thy little children,
Saviour, Saviour,
Bless Thy little lambs.

2 Little hands can do His bidding,
Little hands, little hands;
Little hands can do His bidding
With a tender grace. [Chorus]

3 Little feet can find the pathway,
Little feet, little feet;
Little feet can find the pathway,
Leading up to heav’n. [Chorus]
