Jesus

By Kathy Hickenbotham

Jesus blessed a little girl

When she was very ill.

And when a storm was raging,

He commanded it, “Be still.”

Jesus blessed the lame to walk;

He helped the blind to see.

He loved all little children

And said, “Come unto me.”

Jesus fed the hungry crowd

With fish and loaves of bread,

For they had lingered late to hear

Each word that He had said.

Jesus gave His life for us—

Suffered in Gethsemane—

That we may be together

With Him eternally.
