1 Jesus, let a little child
Humbly supplicate Thy throne;
Speak to me in accents mild,
O Thou great and holy One!

2 "Fill my youthful heart with grace,
Make it Thy beloved abode;
Show Thy reconciling face,
O my Father and my God!

3 "May I early learn Thy ways,
Early know Thy power and love;
Then devote to Thee my days,
Till I am removed above."
