The Children's Hymnbook ‎#38a

38a. I Worship Thee, Lord Jesus

1 I worship Thee, Lord Jesus,
As children did of old,
Who sang within Thy temple
Hosannas manifold.

2 I worship Thee, Lord Jesus,
Once slain upon the Tree,
Now pleading on Thy mercy,
Thy sacrifice for me.

3 I worship Thee, Lord Jesus,
My King and Saviour mild.
Thou hast blest other children;
Bless also me, Thy child.
