1 Jesus blest many little children
When he was on earth below;
Oh, it makes me so glad and happy
When I think he loved them so.
Refrain:
Jesus loves the little children,
He loves them, He loves them,
Jesus loves the little children,
The Bible tells me so.
2 When he lovingly called them to him,
Took them kindly on his knee,
When he said unto his disciples:
“Let the children come to me.” [Refrain]
3 He looks down from above and sees us,
Hearing ev’ry word we say;
How it grieves him to see us sinful,
And sometimes forget to pray. [Refrain]
4 Yes, I know Jesus loves the children,
And he watches all they do;
And I know that he smiles upon them
When they’re loyal, good and true. [Refrain]
