Author: Clara Louise Root Burnham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9112 First Line: "Suffer the children to come" —and the Savior Lyrics: 1 "Suffer the children to come"—and the Savior
Held them with strong and with loving arm;
So every day He is bidding us nearer,
Longing to save us from sin and harm.
Come unto Him, come unto Him,
Longing to save from harm.
2 "Come unto Me," are the words to His children,
Wherever grieving because of sin;
Rest for your souls is His own blessèd promise,
O let His love, His divine love in.
Come unto Him, come unto Him,
Let His divine love in.
3 Easy the yoke that His mercy imposeth,
Choose ye, O choose ye the better part;
Light is the burden that’s carried in meekness,
Ye that are loving and lowly in heart.
Come unto Him, come unto Him,
Ye that are lowly in heart. Languages: English Tune Title: [Suffer the children to come—and the Savior]
