Tune: Hereford
('O thou who camest from above')
Mark 10 v.13-16
**********
They brought young children to Jesus
That He would touch them, and them bless
But His disciples did rebuke
And gave them disapproving look
But when Jesus saw it, He be
Much displeased and He said, Here see
Allow the little children to
come unto me, and to me view
And forbid them not, for of such
Is sure the kingdom of god much
Truly, He said, Whoso shall not
Receive them do frustrate [their] own lot
For if we not kingdom receive
As the little children believe
We shall not enter therein, He
Blessed the children there then, so be
