34 DIVINE SONGS FOR CHILDREN,

3 Let love through all your actions run,
And all your words be mild;
Live like the blessed virgin’s Son,
That sweet and lovely Child.

4 His soul was gentle as a lamb ;
And, as his stature grew,
He grew in favour both with man,
And God his Father too.

5 Now, Lord of all, he reigns above,
And from his heavenly throne,
He sees what children dwell in love,
And marks them for his own.
