1 Precious words, these words of Jesus,
Spoken tenderly;
"Hinder not the little children:
Let them come to Me."
Refrain:
Wonderful words! "Come unto Me."
Wonderful love! drawing to Thee.
Wonderful grace, full and so free!
Merciful Savior, Thine would we be.
2 When we call Him, He will answer
From His throne above;
Oh! how sweet to talk with Jesus,
And to share His love. [Refrain]
3 If we ask Him, He will lead us,
And we shall not stray;
Oh! how blest to walk with Jesus,
Trust Him and obey. [Refrain]
4 He will give us strength to labor,
Grace to conquer sin;
When we knock at Heaven’s portal,
He will say, "Come in." [Refrain]
