GRH 380 Gentle Jesus, Meek and Mild

(1)
Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon a little child;
Pity my simplicity;
Suffer me to come to Thee.

(2)
Lamb of God, I look to Thee,
Thou shalt my example be:
Thou art gentle, meek, and mild,
Thou wast once a little child.

(3)
Fain I would be as Thou art,
Give me Thine obedient heart;
Thou art pitiful and kind,
Let me have Thy loving mind.

(4)
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.
