HYMNS.

“Suffer little children to come unto me.”

    “Let little children come to me,”—­
      This is what the Saviour said;
    Little children, come and see
      Where these gracious words are read.

    Often on these pages look,—­
      Of the love of God they tell;
    ’Tis indeed a holy book,—­
      Learn to read and love it well.
