They shall shine in their beau­ty,
A Christ­ian true, a Christ­ian true.
How splen­did­ly they shine!
They will glit­ter in His sight.
Though the night-time com­eth all too soon?
His head a crown im­mor­tal wears—
’Tis Je­sus that ten­der­ly calls them,
Thy lit­tle ones are bring­ing;
And bids us own and cher­ish.

gems

Bedecking the cloud­less blue,
He will ga­ther, He will ga­ther
Which deck the bro of mon­archs true,
Should gold and gems com­pare;
Pearls in hea­then sha­dows dim,
Were worth strug­gling if life meant much less;
Are names of those He loves the best!
The child­ren are com­ing to Je­sus,
But they are soft­ly sing­ing:
They sa­tis­fy no yearn­ing—
