1. Blessings on all Zion’s children,May their little feet ne’er strayFrom the paths of truth and virtue;Keep them in the narrow way.
Bless the children, Jesus loved them,In his work they have begun,Onward, onward, never fail;Do his bidding ev’ry one.
2. Guide them with his Holy Spirit,Shield them with his gracious pow’r;Then if evil should assail them,They can stand the trying hour.
Bless the children, Jesus loved them,In his work they have begun,Onward, onward, never fail;Do his bidding ev’ry one.
