Listen from:
HERE is "Dot" with her large Alphabet. She is too young to go to school, but she knows the letters pretty well. Do you know how she learned them? Mother takes her a quarter of-an-hour every Lord's-day afternoon, while her big brothers and sisters are at the Sunday School, and teaches her a text beginning with that letter of the Alphabet, a different one each day, and a little verse along with it. So you see she
soon gets to know all the twenty-six letters and she can repeat twenty six short texts, and verses too in six months. I think this is very good for a little "Dot" like her, and there are many other little boys and girls who might do the same. Try this simple way. Many texts from God's holy Word and sweet gospel verses, would be sown in the young and tender heart about sin and the Savior, to be thought of after many days. Let us see what "Dot's Alphabet" is, and then we will try and learn to repeat it, and her verses too.
"ALL" means every girl and boy, And
"SINNED" means turned from God and joy.
"‘THE LAMB OF GOD' who came to die,
Upon the Cross of Calvary."
"COME to the Savior make no delay,
Here in His Word He shows us the way.”
"All who in His Name BELIEVE,
Everlasting life receive.”
"Whosoever cometh need not delay,
Now the door is open, ENTER while you may."
"To Jesus Christ I trembling FLEE, My
REFUGE from the storm is He.”
"GOD Is LOVE, I know it well,
Jesus came that love to tell.”
“Jesus only life can give,
And His Word is, 'HEAR AND LIVE.’”
"I am TRUSTING Lord in Thee,
Blessed Lamb of Calvary.”
"Lord of all is JESUS now,
Every knee to Him must bow.”
"Cleaving ever close to Thee,
KEEP a little one like me."
“There is life for a LOOK at the Crucified One,
There is life at this moment for thee.”
"I will sing of MY Redeemer,
And His wondrous love to me.”
I will NOT work my soul to save,
For that the Lord has done.”
O. Open to Me. SOS. 5:2.
“Swing the heart’s widely OPEN,
Let Him enter while you may.”
"Haste, haste thee, O sinner, prepare for that day,
The bright hours of mercy are passing away.”
"I once was dead in sin, but Jesus gave me life,
Now QUICKENED by His power I conquer in the strife.”
"Jesus gives the weary REST,
Simply trusting I am blest.”
"SALVATION for the aged, salvation for the young,
Salvation e'en for children, proclaim with joyful tongue.”
"Jesus I will trust Thee, trust Thee with my soul,
Guilty, lost and helpless, Thou canst make me whole.”
“Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o'ershaded, sweetly my soul shall rest.”
"The day of grace will quickly end,
The VENGEANCE of the Lord descend."
"Jesus precious blood was shed,
And by this my peace was made.”
"Lost to God, to hope, and heaven.
Unbelieving, unforgiven.”
"Soon as my soul I trusted, to Jesus precious blood,
The Holy Spirit entered and I was BORN OF GOD."
“Thou hast lived and died for me,
I would live and work for Thee.”
