When Jesus lived upon the Earth

So many years ago,

He called the children close to him

because he loved them so…

And with a tenderness of old,

That same sweet, gentle way,

He holds your little loved one close

Within His arms today…

And you’ll find comfort in your faith

that in His Home above

The god of little children

gives your little one His love…

So think of your little darling

lighthearted and happy and free

Playing in God’s Promised Land

where there is joy eternally.When Jesus lived upon the Earth
