LITTLE ONES AT HOME. 231

THE SAVIOUR’S PROMISE.

The Saviour from his throne
All little children sees ;

And they who are his own,
Will try their Lord to please.

He looks with eyes of love
When they kneel down to pray,
And from his home above
Instructs them what to say.

He bids them all to seek,
For they shall surely find ;

His word he will not break,
For he is true and kind.

Then, little children, come,
Obey your Saviour’s call ;

He’ll take you safely home,
He'll be your “all in all.”

 

CHILDREN, COME.

Hark! a tender Saviour speaks,
And the lonely silence breaks:
“ Little children, come to me,

I will your Redeemer be;

You I’ll save from every ill,
And will be your guardian still.
