1 Little feet may find the pathway
Leading upward unto God;
Little hands may learn to scatter
Seeds of precious truth abroad.
Youthful hearts may be the temples
For the Spirit’s dwelling place,
Childhood’s lips declare the riches
Of God’s all abounding grace.

Refrain:
Jesus said “Let the little ones,”
Jesus said “Let the little ones,”
Jesus said “Let the little ones come unto me,
For of such, for of such is the Kingdom of heav’n.”

2 “Little ones,” tho’ frail and earthborn,
Heirs of blessedness may be;
For the Savior whispers gently
“Suffer such to come to me;”
And in that eternal kingdom,
‘Mid the grand triumphal throng,
Children’s voices sweet may mingle
In the glorious choral song. [Refrain]
