Bless the Children
Bless the Children
1. Blessings on all Zion’s children,
May their little feet ne’er stray
From 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.
