Hymn No. 67

Let the children come

Origin: DSDA Kenya Division

Rod Quotation: 5SC6-12:6.1.2

Tune: New


♦-1-♦
Unto Jesus were brought little children,
That He should put His hands on them and pray,
He being so kind and gentle to all men,
Calling for them, the Loving Lord did say:

♦-Refrain-♦
Let the children, come unto me,
Forbid them not, forbid them not,
For of such is, and they will see,
The Kingdom of heaven.

♦-2-♦
With sympathy, Jesus heard the request,
But the mothers were quickly sent away,
This was unto the disciples a test,
He was displeased with them and so did say:

♦-3-♦
Then in His arms, Jesus took the children,
Gave them the blessing, as He does today,
Oh dear mother, Jesus knows the burden,
That’s in your heart, so hear the Saviour say:

♦-4-♦
Soon we’ll be there, in the holy mountain,
The calf, young lion, and a child shall play,
He who has childlike faith will enter in,
And this is why the loving Lord did say:

5SC6-12:6.1.2; Series page: SCS : 428
Clearly, then, truly to suffer and forbid not children to come unto Christ, is to discipline them by precept and example to unfailing obedience to God’s requirements,–“to every word that proceedeth out of His mouth,” –“till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the son of God, a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.” Eph. 4:13.
