Gentle Jesus Meek and Mild
GENTLE JESUS 7.7.7.7.
GUIDANCE
Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon a little child;
Pity my simplicity,
Suffer me to come to thee
Lamb of God, I look to Thee;
Thou shalt my example be;
Thou art gentle, meek and mild;
Thou was once a little child
Fain I would be as thou art;
Give me Thy obedient heart;
Thou art pitiful and kind,
Let me have Thy loving mind
I shall then show forth thy praise,
Serve thee all my happy days;
Then the world shall always see Christ,
The Holy Child in me.
