9432. Infant So Gentle

1 Infant so gentle,
So pure and so sweet,
Love from Thy holy eyes
Children doth greet.
Tend’rest words fail all
Thy beauty to show,
We must adore Thee
If Thee we would know.

2 Infant so gentle,
So pure and so sweet,
See all the children who
Kneel at Thy feet.
Grant them Thy blessing,
O Baby divine,
Lead them unto Thee
And make them all Thine.
