Hymnal: Kind Words #49 (1871) First Line: Children, listen to the call Lyrics: 1 Children, listen to the call,
Little children, one and all,
Jesus calls thee, come away,
Seek the straight, the narrow way.
Chorus:
Come away, come away,
Jesus calls thee, come away!
Come away, come away,
Seek the straight, the narrow way.
2 Children, Jesus died for me;
Jesus, child, hath died for thee,
'Tis our sins the Lord hath slain,
Shall his death be all in vain? [Chorus]
3 Seek Him--they that seek shall find,
Seek Him with an earnest mind,
Jesus Christ, the undefiled,
Waits to bless the humble child. [Chorus]
4 Seek Him ere it be too late,
Haste thee to the open gate,
Earthly honors all are dross,
Seek the shelter of the cross. [Chorus]
