Suffer The Little Children
by Heirloom

Album: The Best of Heirloom

Up before dawn and out the door
What in this world are we striving for
We already have much more
Than our time affords
Struggling up the ladder
Offers us little reward
If we're heroes to strangers
And strangers to our children
We won't stand blameless before the Lord

He said, suffer the little children
For such is the kingdom of heaven
Oh, you know He loves the little ones
So, mothers and fathers
Let's follow the Savior
And cherish the treasure
We have in daughters and sons

Train up a child as he should go
He won't turn away when he is old
Lord, give us the wisdom that we need
Kids learn a little from what we say
Much more from what they see
If they see us filling our lives
With everything but Jesus
How will they know it's Him they need
(Oh, how will they know)

He said, suffer the little children
For such is the kingdom of heaven
Oh, you know He loves the little ones
So, mothers and fathers
Let's follow the Savior
And cherish the treasure
We have in daughters and sons
