Gentle stranger, fearless come,
To our quiet, happy home:
Bud of being, beauteous flower,
Sprung to birth this smiling hour
While upon thy form we gaze,
Grateful thoughts to heaven we raise.
Saviour, from thy heavenly throne
Smile upon this little one;
Let thy Spirit be its guide,
Let its wants be well supplied ;
Cleanse it by thy precious blood,
Fit it for thy high abode.
