298. Jesus Is Calling the Children

8.4.8.4.
1
Jesus is calling the children
 
Unto His side,
 
Stretches His arms to receive them,
 
Opens them wide.
 
Gently to lead them,
 
Guard them and feed them,
 
Jesus is calling the lambs to His side.
2
Jesus is calling the children,
 
Why do they stay
 
Out in the wilderness wandering,
 
Going astray?
3
Jesus is calling the children,
 
Calling today;
 
Hasten each one for the blessing,
 
Do not delay.
