Hymnal: The Little Seraph #163a (1874) First Line: Long ago, when little children Lyrics: 1 Long ago, when little children
Came the loving Lord to see,
Just such little ones as we.
Jesus bless'd them,
Jesus lov'd them,
Just such little ones as we.
2 While he on the earth was living,
If he saw one meek and mild,
Gentle, truthful, and forgiving,
Well he lov'd that little child.
3 Though he died, he lives heaven,
And his care enfolds us still,
To us all his love is given
When we do his holy will. Tune Title: [Long ago, when little children]
