Come ye children of the kingdom

Anonymous
quoted here from the 1835 Kirtland hymnal


1. Come ye children of the kingdom,
Sing with me for joy to-day;
Gather round, as Christ's disciples,
Kneel with grateful hearts and pray.

2. There's a line contained in Matthew
What the Savior said to John,
And the sacred words from heaven,
This is my beloved Son.

3. As 'twas said to Nicodemus,
So I must be born again;
'Tis by water and the Spirit
I the promise may obtain.

4. So I will obey the Savior,
Keep his law and do his will,
That I may enjoy forever,
Happiness on Zion's hill.
