When Jesus was asked by His servants one day
Who greatest in Heaven would be,
He beckoned a little one to Him and said,
�Such only shall enter with Me.�
Refrain
O Master, redeem us from hardness and pride,
And make us a child in Thy sight;
With meekness and trust may our bosom be filled,
And love guide our actions aright.
Tho� honor and riches may brighten our way,
And friends gather round with their cheer,
Except we are willing the poorest to serve,
No welcome to Heaven we�ll hear.
Refrain
God blesses the children because they are pure,
And all may be such by His grace;
Thro� crosses and cares we may rise to His throne,
And shine in the light of His face.
