Let the children come to Jesus,
For He loves each little one,
Let them learn to sing His praises,
From the dawn till setting sun.
Refrain:
Let the children come to Jesus,
Lay them on His gentle breast;
Let the children come to Jesus,
And of Him be ever blest.
Guard their precious hearts from evil;
Teach them while they yet are small;
Train their little souls for heaven,
Ere in depths of sin they fall.
Teach the children, brother, sister,
‘Tis a duty you can do;
If you cannot preach to others,
Christ will give His lambs to you.
Let the children come to Jesus,
Father, mother, bring them in;
If your little ones are precious,
Save them from this world of sin.
