Original text and translations

English.png English text <poem> Jesus, Friend of little children,

Be a friend to me;

Take my hand, and ever keep me

Close to Thee.

Teach me how to grow in goodness,

Daily as I grow;

Thou hast been a child, and surely

Thou dost know.

Step by step O lead me onward,

Upward into youth;

Wiser, stronger, still becoming

In Thy truth.

Never leave me, nor forsake me;

Ever be my friend;

For I need Thee, from life’s dawning

To its end.
Walter John Mathams (1853-1931)
