A LITTLE CHILD

A little child is given us, 
A life to love and call our own, 
A little soul to guard and guide,
A light to shine within our home. 

Oh baby hands that softly cling 
In trust that we may feel your need. 
Oh little body soft and warm, 
Our own to cherish, clothe and feed. 

Oh little soul, so pure and clean, 
May our own lives from day to day 
Be such that you may walk with us 
And follow Jesus all the way.
