Come, and learn of Jesus

Representative Text

1 Little children, every one,
Come and learn of Jesus,
What a work His love has done,
Come and learn of Jesus:
Oft we have the story told,
Of the Saviour's precious fold;
But to us it ne'er grows old,
Come and learn of Jesus.

2 Do not linger, haste away,
Come and learn of Jesus,
In our Sunday school today,
Come and learn of Jesus:
Loving friends will tell you there,
How to seek His tender care;--
Come and kneel with us in prayer;
Come and learn of Jesus.

3 Once He came from heaven to earth,
Come and learn of Jesus,
He was meek, of lowly birth,
Come and learn of Jesus:
Then He died for you and me,
Died from sin to make us free;
O! how thankful we should be,
Come and learn of Jesus.

4 Come and join the songs we raise,
Come and learn of Jesus,
They are songs of joy and praise,
Come and learn of Jesus:
Happy children young as we,
Now His face in glory see
There perhaps our home may be,
Come and learn of Jesus.
