Composer:C. Harold Lowden

118. Calling the Children

1 Jesus is calling the children today;
Gentle and sweet is His voice;
Calling the children to walk in His way,
And in His blessings rejoice.

Refrain:
Calling the children, calling the children,
Calling the children today;
Jesus is calling the children,
To walk in love’s beautiful way.

2 Jesus is calling the children today;
Haste, while His arms open wide;
Trust in His grace, and His counsel obey,
Happy to dwell at His side. [Refrain]

3 Jesus is calling the children today;
Follow His footsteps of love;
So will He keep you from going astray,
Lead you to mansions above. [Refrain]
