I think, when I read that sweet story

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #88 (1903) First Line: I think, when I read that sweet story of old Lyrics: 1 I think, when I read that sweet story of old, 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. 2 I wish that His hand 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." 3 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go, And ask for a share in His love; And if I only earnestly seek Him below, I shall see Him and hear Him above. 4 In that beautiful place He has gone to prepare For all who are washed and forgiven; Full many dear children are gathering there, "For of such is the kingdom of heaven." 5 But thousands and thousands who wander and fall, Never heard of that heavenly home: I wish they could know there is room for them all, And that Jesus has bid them to come. 6 And oh, how I long for that glorious time, The sweetest and brightest and best, When the dear little children of every clime Shall crowd to His arms and be blest!

I Think When I Read That Sweet Story of Old

Author: Jemima Luke Hymnal: The Children's Hymnbook #102 (1962) Lyrics: 1 I think when I read that sweet story of old, 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. 2 I wish that His hands had been placed on my head, That His arms had been thrown around me, And that I might have seen His kind look when He said, "Let the little ones come unto Me." 3 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go And ask for a share in His love. And if I thus earnestly seek Him below, I shall see Him and hear Him above. Topics: Jesus on Earth Languages: English Tune Title: SWEET STORY (Luke)
