The Children's Hymnbook ‎#66

66. Jesus, Meek and Gentle

1 Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God Most High,
Gracious, loving Saviour,
Hear Thy children's cry.

2 Give us holy freedom;
Fill our hearts with love;
Draw us, holy Jesus,
To the realms above.

3 Lead us on our journey;
Be Thyself the way
Through terrestrial darkness
To the heavenly day.

4 Jesus, meek and gentle,
Son of God Most High,
Gracious, loving Saviour,
Hear Thy children's cry.
