Little Ones

Said a precious little laddie
To his father one bright day
"Shall I give my heart to Jesus,
Let Him wash my sins away?"
"O my son, but you're too little,
Wait until you older grow;
Bigger folks, 'tis true, they need Him
Little ones are safe you know."

Said the father to his laddie
As the storm was coming on
"Are the sheep securely sheltered,
Are they safely gathered, son?"
"All the big ones are, my father
But the lambs - I let them go
For I did not think it mattered
Little ones are safe you know."
