¶Liedtext

1 I think when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How He called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with them then. Refrain: I should like to have been with them then, I should like to have been with them then; How He called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with them then. 2 I wish that His hands had been placed on my head, That His arm had been thrown around me; And that I might have seen His kind look when He said, "Let the little ones come unto Me." [Refrain:] 3 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go, And ask for a share in His love; And if I now earnestly seek Him below, I shall see Him and hear Him above. [Refrain:] 4 In that beautiful place He has gone to prepare, For all who are washed and forgiven; And many dear children are gathering there, For "Of such is the kingdom of heaven." [Refrain:]
