9184. The Children's Friend Is Jesus

1 The children’s friend is Jesus,
He calls them to His side;
He gave His life a ransom,
Heaven’s gate to open wide.

Refrain:
The children’s friend is Jesus,
Jesus, Jesus;
His life He gave their souls to save,
The children’s friend is He.

2 The children’s friend is Jesus,
He loves their joys to share,
He knows their little sorrows,
He longs each one to bear. [Refrain]

3 The children’s friend is Jesus,
There’s no one else so true;
He keeps all those who trust Him,
As no one else can do. [Refrain]
