The Children's Friend

Narrator: Chris Genthree
There’s a Friend for little children,
Above the bright blue sky—
A Friend who never changeth,
Whose love can never die.
Unlike our friends by nature,
Who change with changing years,
This Friend is always worthy
The precious name He bears.
There’s a rest for little children,
Above the bright blue sky;
Who love the blessed Saviour,
And “Abba, Father,” cry;
A rest from every turmoil,
From sin and danger free;
Where every little pilgrim
Shall rest eternally.
There’s a home for little children,
Above the bright blue sky;
Where Jesus reigns in glory,
A home of peace and joy.
No home on earth is like it,
Or can with it compare;
For every one is happy,
Nor could be happier there.
“Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matt. 11:2828Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28).
