Let the Little Children Come

Mark · Concerto Grosso

[Refrain - in his arms] Suffer the little children to come unto me, Forbid them not, For of such is the kingdom of God. He took them in his arms and blessed them. [Verse 1 - the running man] Good Master, what shall I do That I may inherit eternal life? Thou knowest the commandments; All these have I observed from my youth. [Verse 2 - one thing lacking] Jesus beholding him loved him: One thing thou lackest. Sell whatsoever thou hast, give to the poor, Take up the cross, and follow me. [Interlude - he went away grieved] He was sad at that saying And went away grieved, for he had great possessions. [Bridge - the needle's eye] How hardly shall they that have riches enter the kingdom. It is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye. Who then can be saved? With men it is impossible, but not with God. [Outro] Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom as a little child Shall not enter therein. With God all things are possible.
