Jesus is our loving Savior,
He, our best, our constant Friend;
In His service life is pleasure,
For He loveth to the end.
Loving Savior, loving Savior,
|:Here we at Thy footstool bend.:|
Jesus is the children’s Savior!
’Twas for them He shed his blood;
Died, that poor and needy sinners
Might be reconciled to God.
Dying Savior! Dying Savior!
|:Bearing thus our sinful load.:|
Jesus is the children’s Savior!
“Suffer them,” He says, “to come.”
If they seek His face and favor,
They shall share His heav’nly home.
Risen Savior! Risen Savior!
|:Never more from Thee to roam.:|
Loving suff’ring, dying Savior!
Risen, glorious on Thy throne,
Haste the day when every idol
Shall by truth be overthrown.
And the kingdoms, and the kingdoms
|:Of the earth to Thee belong.:|
