66. Good News For Little Children

1 Good news for little children,
Whoever they may be;
To them the loving Saviour
Has said, "Come unto me."

Chorus:
Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not;
For of such is the kingdom of Heaven.

2 However poor and needy,
However weak and small,
The boundless love of Jesus
Encircles one and all. [Chorus]

3 None are too young to love Him;
None are too young to know
The name of Him who saves them
From endless death and woe. [Chorus]
