Author: Doddridge Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #859 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Voice of Praise 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.
