1 Hark! I hear the Saviour calling:
"Little children, come to me;
I will bless you, save you, keep you,
I from sin will set you free."
Chorus:
He calls again: O, let us, then,
With one united cry,
The call obey, and humbly say--
"Dear Jesus, here am I."
2 "Come," says Jesus, "in the morning
Of your bright and tender youth;
I will be your guide and helper,
I'm the Way, the Life, the Truth." [Chorus]
3 "Come without a moment's waiting,
In your want and weakness come:
I will take you, I will love you,
I will bring you to my home." [Chorus]
4 "Come, for 'twas to seek and save you,
I to earth from Heaven came down;
Come, that I may have and hold you
In my everlasting crown." [Chorus]
5 "Come, there's nothing now to hinder,
Little child, whoe'er thou art;
I for thee myself have given:
Give me back thyself--thy heart." [Chorus]
