The Sweet Story of Old

Author: Jemima Luke Hymnal: Children's Hymnal #81 (1957) First Line: I think when I read that sweet story of old Lyrics: 1 I think, when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How he called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with them then. 2 I wish that his hands had been placed on my head, That his arms had been thrown around me, And that I might have seen his kind look when he said, "Let the little ones come unto me." 3 Yet still to his footstool in prayer I may go And ask for a share in his love; And if I thus earnestly seek him below, I shall see him and hear him above.
