Mark 10:16

• [Mar 10:16] Christ, Who Once Among Us

  Christ, who once among us as a child did dwell, Is the children’s Savior, and He loves us well; If we keep our promise made Him at the font, He will be our Shepherd, and we shall not want. There it was they laid us in those tender arms, Where the lambs are carried safe from all alarms; If we trust His promise, He will let us rest In His arms forever, leaning on His breast. Though we may not see Him for a little while, We shall know He holds us, often feel His smile; Death will be to slumber, in that sweet embrace, And we shall awaken to behold His face. He will be our Shepherd after as before, By still heavenly waters lead us evermore, Make us lie in pastures beautiful and green, Where none thirst or hunger, And no tears are seen. Jesus, our good Shepherd, laying down Thy life, Lest Thy sheep should perish in the cruel strife, Help us to remember all Thy love and care, Trust in Thee, and love Thee Always, everywhere.

• [Mar 10:16] Safe In The Arms Of Jesus

  Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast, There by His love o’ershaded, sweetly my soul shall rest. Hark! ’tis the voice of angels, borne in a song to me. Over the fields of glory, over the jasper sea. Refrain Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle breast There by His love o’ershaded, sweetly my soul shall rest. Safe in the arms of Jesus, safe from corroding care, Safe from the world’s temptations, sin cannot harm me there. Free from the blight of sorrow, free from my doubts and fears; Only a few more trials, only a few more tears! Refrain Jesus, my heart’s dear Refuge, Jesus has died for me; Firm on the Rock of Ages, ever my trust shall be. Here let me wait with patience, wait till the night is over; Wait till I see the morning break on the golden shore. Refrain

• [Mar 10:16] See Israel’s Gentle Shepherd Stand

  See Israel’s gentle Shepherd stand With all engaging charms; Hark! how He calls the tender lambs, And folds them in His arms. “Permit them to approach,” He cries, “Nor scorn their humble name; For ’twas to bless such souls as these The Lord of angels came.” We bring them, Lord, in thankful hands, And yield them up to Thee; Joyful that we ourselves are Thine, Thine let our offspring be. Ye little flock, with pleasure hear; Ye children, seek His face, And fly with transport to receive The blessings of His grace. If orphans they are left behind, Thy guardian care we trust, That care shall heal our bleeding hearts, While weeping o’er their dust.

• [Mar 10:16] There’s A Friend For Little Children

  There’s a Friend for little children Above the bright blue sky, A Friend who never changes, Whose love will never die; Our earthly friends may fail us, And change with changing years, This Friend is always worthy Of that dear Name He bears. There’s a rest for little children Above the bright blue sky, Who love the blessèd Savior, And to the Father cry A rest from every turmoil, From sin and sorrow 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, Nor can with it compare; For everyone is happy Nor could be happier there. There’s a crown for little children Above the bright blue sky, And all who look for Jesus Shall wear it by and by; A crown of brightest glory, Which He will then bestow On those who found his favor And loved His Name below. There’s a song for little children Above the bright blue sky, A song that will not weary, Though sung continually; A song which even angels Can never, never sing They know not Christ as Savior, But worship Him as King. There’s a robe for little children Above the bright blue sky, And a harp of sweetest music, And palms of victory. All, all above is treasured, And found in Christ alone: O come, dear little children That all may be your own.
