Christ My Song - 696

Jesus, canst thou receive - A child's enquiry
(John Nelson Darby/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)

A child's enquiry.

1. Jesus, canst thou receive
  a feeble child like me?
My little heart can scarce believe
  that I may come to thee! (PDF - Midi)

2. With children I can go,
  and all I think can say;
with those I've often seen and know
  I do not fear to stay.

3. But Lord of heaven art thou,
  and dwell'st far off on high!
Though at thy name I'm taught to bow,
  can I to thee draw nigh?

4. That Name is far above
  my thoughts, howe'er I try;
how can I know thou dost me love,
  nor fear before thine eye?

John Nelson Darby, Spiritual Songs, 74.
