[Thy hands upon our children lay]

He . . . put His hands upon them, and blessed them. —x. 16.

Thy hands upon our children lay,
And bless them in Thy service here,
Into their tender hearts convey
A principle of pious fear:
Thee by a life of holy love
Long may they live to glorify,
Or innocent from earth remove,
And spotless to Thy bosom fly.
