133d. For of such is the kingdom

1 Saviour, once fond parents brought thee
Infants smiling in their arms,
For thy blessing they besought thee,
When they saw thy gracious charms,
Friend of children, friend of children
How he clasp'd them in his arms.

2 Now he sits in yonder heaven,
Kindly bidding us to come,
If our hearts to him are given,
There we'll sing a sweeter song:
We will praise him, we will prais him,
When we join the happy throng.

3 May we meet each faithful teacher
On that bright and flowery plain,
With our parents and kind preacher,
There in bliss for aye to reign;
And the glory, and the glory,
We'll ascribe to Jesus' name.
