Author: Henry U. Onderdonk; Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #321 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 The Saviour kindly calls
Our children to His breast;
He folds them in His gracious arms,
Himself declares them blest.
2 "Let them approach," He cries,
"Nor scorn their humble claim;
The heirs of heaven are such as these,
For such as these I came."
3 With joy we bring them, Lord,
Devoting them to Thee,
Imploring, that, as we are Thine,
Thine may our offspring be.
Amen. Topics: Baptism; Church Sacraments of; Covenant; Means of Grace Languages: English Tune Title: STATE STREET
