How can we see the children, Lord

1

How can we see the children, Lord,Whom thou in love hast given,Remain regardless of thy word,Without a hope of heaven?

2

Lord, hear the parents' earnest cry,And save our children dear;Now send thy Spirit from on high,And fill them with thy fear.

3

O make them love thy holy law,And joyful walk therein;Their hearts to new obedience draw;Save them from every sin.
