80b. Little children, come to Jesus

1 Little children, come to Jesus;
Hear him saying, "Come to me,"
Blessed Jesus, who to save us,
Shed his blood on Calvary!
Little souls were made to serve him,
All his holy law fulfill,
Little hearts were made to love him,
Little hands to do his will.

Refrain:
Little children come to Jesus;
Hear him saying, "Come to me,"
Blessed Jesus, who to save us,
Shed his blood on Calvary.

2 Little eyes to read the Bible,
Given from the heaven above;
Little ears to hear the story,
Of the Saviour's wondrous love;
Little tongues to sing his praises,
Little feet to walk his ways;
Little bodies to be temples,
Where the Holy Spirit stays. [Refrain]

3 There are little crowns in heaven,
There are little harps of gold;
There are little shining dresses,
There are gems and joys untold;
Jesus gave his blood to buy them;
He has bought enough for all,
Little children, come to Jesus,
He has love for great and small. [Refrain]
