Hymn 38. Sevens. |Gentle Jesu, Meek and Mild.|

Gentle Jesu, meek and mild,
Look upon a little child;
Pity my simplicity,
Suffer me to come to thee.

2 Fain I would to thee be brought;
Dearest Lord, forbid it not;
Give me, dearest Lord, a place
In the kingdom of thy grace.

3 Lamb of God, I look to thee;
Thou shalt my example be;
Thou are gentle, meek and mild,
Thou wast once a little child.

4 Loving Jesu, gentle Lamb,
In thy gracious hands I am;
Make me, Saviour, what thou art,
Live thyself within my heart.
