1 Jesus invites me to come unto him,
Jesus invites me to come unto him,
Jesus invites me to come unto him;
Hark, I hear him say.

“Suffer the children to come unto me,
Suffer the children to come unto me,
Suffer the children to come unto me,
And forbid them not.”
2 For of such is the kingdom of heav’n,
For of such is the kingdom of heav’n,
For of such is the kingdom of heav’n,
Therefore let them come. [Refrain]
3 This is the will of the Father in heav’n,
This is the will of the Father in heav’n,
This is the will of the Father in heav’n,
That we perish not. [Refrain]
