“They brought young children to Him, that He should touch them: and His disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was much displeased” (Mark 10:13-16).
I ask no worldly portion for my child;
I seek not of Thee gold or rank or fame;
Save it from sin, from human passions
wild —
An interest in Thy love is all I claim;
Lord, make it Thine — Thine only — is
my plea,
To love and serve and live alone for
Thee.
