Let the Children Come

Let the children come. Let the children come to me.

Do not stop them, let me touch them, let the children come to me

For the kingdom (All creations worth; God's promise at your birth.)

For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Let the children come to me.

Do not stop them, I will bless them.

Let the children come to me.
Accept God's blessings as a child.

Accept God's kingdom like a child

Unless you do it will not open to you.

Let the children come to me.
