Suffer Little Children to Come

Author: Mary B. Wingate Hymnal: Sacred Songs No. 2 #78 (1899) First Line: We have heard the story Refrain First Line: Suffer little children to come unto me Lyrics: 1 We have heard the story Of the sweetest Child, How He grew to manhood, Gentle, undefiled, When on earth He tarried, Years and years ago; Once He call’d the children When they throng’d Him so. Refrain: “Suffer little children to come unto me, Suffer little children to come unto me And forbid them not, forbid them not, For of such is the Kingdom of heav’n.” 2 When the stern disciples Thought them in the way Jesus called them nearer, He would have them stay; In His arms He held them And he sweetly said, As He murmur’d blessings On each gentle head:— [Refrain] 3 Jesus loves the children Just the same today; He would have them follow, Where He leads the way, He would have us love Him— Him who loves us so— Hear Him calling now, as In the long ago. [Refrain] Topics: Invitation Scripture: Matthew 19:14 Tune Title: [We have heard the story]
