Jesus, Our Friend

Author: Lanta Wilson Smith Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: When Jesus lived upon the earth Refrain First Line: Our Savior blessed the little ones Lyrics: 1 When Jesus lived upon the earth, And healed the sick and lame; The mothers took their little cones, And joyfully then came. He looked on them and kindly said: “O let them come to Me, Forbid them not, for such as these My Father’s face shall see.” Refrain: Our Savior blessed the little ones, That all the world may know, He came to save the children too, Because He loved them so. 2 Perhaps theses little boys and girls Were sometimes naughty too; But Jesus sent them not away, His love is strong and true. Although he grieves when we do wrong, And slight His precious name, He tries to help us all the more, And loves us just the same. [Refrain] 3 When little children come to Him, He takes them in his arms; Oh, what a safe and blessed place To rest from all alarms. And so we sing with happy hearts, Our songs of joy and love; We’ll serve our blessed Savior here, And dwell with Him above. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [When Jesus lived upon the earth]
