Let The Children Come

Jesus looked so weary
from the worries of the day
But the look on His face lighted
when the children came His way
Before He could reach out to them
and join them in their play
His grown-up adult followers
told the kids to go away
Let the children come
Don't dare drive them away
And then the kingdom comes
Hear the holy, foolish things they say
The springtime of their life decides
the adults they'll become
So let the children come
Please let the children come
The golden gift of childhood
Last a lifetime if you try
The simple trusting faith they hold
Keeps scholars mystified
And so the Lord adopts us
as His daughters and His sons
The Kingdom is for Children
So please let the children come
Let the children come
Don't dare drive them away
And then the kingdom comes
Hear the holy, foolish things they say
The springtime of their life decides
the adults they'll become
So let the children come
Please let the children come
