CHAPTER X. The poetical works of John and Charles Wesley | ||
983.
[I yield, I joyfully agree]
I yield, I joyfully agree
That children should be brought to Thee,
Myself their infant weakness bear,
And bring them in the arms of prayer.
That children should be brought to Thee,
Myself their infant weakness bear,
And bring them in the arms of prayer.
Hear, Jesus, hear their helpless cry,
Whom now I place beneath Thine eye;
Into Thy kind embraces take,
And subjects of Thy kingdom make.
Whom now I place beneath Thine eye;
Into Thy kind embraces take,
And subjects of Thy kingdom make.
Thine hand beneficent extend
To bless, and shelter, and defend;
Thy Spirit to my children give,
And let them to Thy glory live.
To bless, and shelter, and defend;
Thy Spirit to my children give,
And let them to Thy glory live.
31
Dear objects of their Shepherd's care
Thy lambs and little ones they are,
Whom Thou dost in Thy bosom hide
Or by the silent waters glide.
Thy lambs and little ones they are,
Whom Thou dost in Thy bosom hide
Or by the silent waters glide.
Still let them in Thy footsteps tread,
Till by Thy loving Spirit led
They find the final blessing given,
And triumph with Thy flock in heaven.
Till by Thy loving Spirit led
They find the final blessing given,
And triumph with Thy flock in heaven.
