Jesus called a little child,
We do not know its name,
But this we know beyond a doubt,
The child to Jesus came.
And Jesus still is calling
The little ones to Him,
To prove the value of His blood
That cleanses from all sin.
He calls to you, my little one,
Say, do you know His voice,
Is He your own dear Saviour—
Has He made your heart rejoice?
Have all your sins been washed away?
Are you made clean and white—
And through the Saviour’s precious blood,
Made fit for glory bright?
Dear little ones, He’s calling now,
But soon He’ll “call no more,”
He waits to save, but soon He’ll rise
And close the open door.
Then come to Him, dear little ones,
O, come without delay!
Believe His love, and trust His blood,
And you are safe for aye.
