Matthew 18:3

• [Mat 18:3] Child In The Midst, The

  When Jesus was asked by His servants one day Who greatest in Heaven would be, He beckoned a little one to Him and said, “Such only shall enter with Me.” Refrain O Master, redeem us from hardness and pride, And make us a child in Thy sight; With meekness and trust may our bosom be filled, And love guide our actions aright. Tho’ honor and riches may brighten our way, And friends gather round with their cheer, Except we are willing the poorest to serve, No welcome to Heaven we’ll hear. Refrain God blesses the children because they are pure, And all may be such by His grace; Thro’ crosses and cares we may rise to His throne, And shine in the light of His face. Refrain

Matthew 19:13-14

• [Mat 19:14] Come Children, With Singing

  Come children, with singing, with sweet voices ringing, Come kneel to the Babe that in Bethlehem lies, While angels achoir, with pinions of fire, Are filling with music the listening skies. Repeat the dear story how, veiling His glory, The Hope of the Ages came down to the earth, Oh, worship Him lowly, the lofty and holy Our Star of the Morning shone out at His birth. See Mary enfold Him, while shepherds behold Him. And sages are bent at His beautiful feet. Come, haste to adore Him, and, bowing before Him, The Lord who redeems you in reverence greet. This wonderful Stranger, His couch is a manger, His cradle is made with the cattle in stall; Yet God of creation in blest incarnation, He stoops to our nature to ransom us all.

• [Mat 19:14] Let Little Children Come To Me

  “Let little children come to Me,” So says our blessèd Lord; And I, a little child, must be Obedient to His Word; On Sabbath days must sing His praise, And bow before Him, for He says, “Let little children come to Me, Let little children come.” “Let little children come to Me,” It is my Savior’s call; He spake it not to two or three, But to the children all; And so, when they His law obey, It is as if they heard Him say, “Let little children come to Me, Let little children come.” “Let little children come to Me,” O Father, Lord, I come; Through life and death I’ll go with Thee, Thine arms shall be my home. I cannot fear when Thou art near; And Thy sweet words I seem to hear, “Let little children come to Me, Let little children come.”

• [Mat 19:14] Tell Me The Stories Of Jesus

  Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear; Things I would ask Him to tell me if He were here; Scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea, Stories of Jesus, tell them to me. First let me hear how the children stood round His knee, And I shall fancy His blessing resting on me; Words full of kindness, deeds full of grace, All in the love light of Jesus’ face. Tell me, in accents of wonder, how rolled the sea, Tossing the boat in a tempest on Galilee; And how the Maker, ready and kind, Chided the billows, and hushed the wind. Into the city I’d follow the children’s band, Waving a branch of the palm tree high in my hand. One of His heralds, yes, I would sing Loudest hosannas, “Jesus is King!” Show me that scene in the garden, of bitter pain. Show me the cross where my Savior for me was slain. Sad ones or bright ones, so that they be Stories of Jesus, tell them to me.

• [Mat 19:14] When Mothers Of Salem

  When mothers of Salem their children brought to Jesus, The stern disciples drove them back and bade them to depart: But Jesus saw them ere they fled and sweetly smiled and kindly said, “Suffer little children to come unto Me.” “For I will receive them and fold them to My bosom: I’ll be a shepherd to these lambs, O drive them not away; For if their hearts to Me they give, they shall with Me in glory live: Suffer little children to come unto Me.” How kind was our Savior to bid these children welcome! But there are many thousands who have never heard His Name; The Bible they have never read, they know not that the Savior said, “Suffer little children to come unto Me.” O soon may the heathen of every tribe and nation Fulfill Thy blessèd Word and cast their idols all away! O shine upon them from above and show Thyself a God of love, Teach the little children to come unto Thee!
