When Jesus was here among men,

How he called little children as lambs to his fold,

I should like to have been with them then.
I wish that his hands had been placed on my head,

That his arm had been thrown around me,

And that I might have seen his kind look when he said,

'Let the little ones come unto me.'
Yet still to his footstool in prayer I may go,

And ask for a share in his love;

And if I now earnestly seek him below,

I shall see him and hear him above.

A -men.
