EN 3761 Jesus a Child His Course Begun
Luke.2.49
Versi Version 1
1
Jesus a child His work begun:
How radiant dawned His heavenly day!
And those who such a race would run
As early should be on their way.
2
His Father’s business was His care;
Yet in man’s favor still He grew;
O might we learn by thought and prayer,
Like Him a work of love to do!
3
For all mankind He came, nor yet
An infant’s visit would deny;
Nor friend nor mother did forget
In His last hour of agony.
4
O children, ask Him to impart
That spirit clear, that temper mild,
Which made the mother in her heart
Keep all the sayings of her Child.
5
Bless Him Who said, of such as you
His Father’s kingdom is: and still,
His yoke to bear, His work to do,
Study His life to learn His will.
