Suffer the Children CM
TUNE: ST Peter
O suffer evr’y little child,
Take them to Jesu’s feet;
To know His love and saving grace,
Will make their lives complete.
Tell them the stories about Christ,
Show them where He has trod;
Tell how He died to save us all,
Redeeming us to God.
Tell of the infant who was born,
Asleep on soft, new hay;
Tell them of Joseph and Mary,
And those who came to pray.
Tell of the shepherds a-watching,
Contented sheep that night;
Tell them of great angelic choirs
Glowing in heaven’s light.
Tell all the things the Saviour did
On earth so long ago;
Tell them the stories wonderful,
The things they need to know.
Tell them how Jesus loves them all,
Teach them how they should pray,
O suffer evr’y little child,
Take them to Him today.
