You are His little ones – never despair;
He holds you gently with His tender care;
He is the little one laid in the straw
He is the baby poor shepherds adore.
He is our great God who came to his own,
the maker of all things in a manger enthroned.
Not dressed in velvet but wrapped up in rags
sharing the needs of the last and the sad.
You are His little ones – never despair;
He holds you gently in His tender care;
each little trouble that worries your mind
will in His love’s wisdom the true answer find.
Words: Andrew Hawes (1954 – )
