But Jesus was displeased, and said, Let the little children come to Me, mp WHEN mothers of Salem their children brought to Jesus, cr mf mp The stern disciples drove them back, and bade them depart; But Jesus saw them ere they fled, and sweetly smiled and kindly said, 'Suffer little children to come unto Me. 2 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: 3 How kind was our Saviour to bid these children welcome! mf 4 0, soon may the heathen of every tribe and nation Fulfil Thy blessed Word and cast their idols all away! O, shine upon them from above, and show Thyself a God of love, W. M. HUTCHINGS. Show forth His salvation, declare His glory among the heathen. mf WE have heard a joyful sound, Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Spread the gladness all around; Climb the steeps and cross the waves; 2 Waft it on the rolling tide; Echo back, ye ocean caves; Jesus saves! Jesus saves! 3 Sing above the battle's strife; When the heart for mercy craves; f 4 Give the winds a mighty voice: Let the nations now rejoice: Shout salvation full and free To every strand that ocean laves: This our song of victory, Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Amen. P. J. OWENS. 563 GLAD DAY. 7.7.7.7. (FIRST TUNE.) WM. W. GILCHRIST. By the courtesy of the Trustees of the Presbyterian Board of Publication and Sabbath-School Work, Philadelphia.
