Verse 1:

G

Jesus looked so weary

C G

From the worries of the day.

D C

But the look on His face lighted,

G D

As the children came His way.

C G

But before He could reach out to them,

C G

And join them in their play,

C G

His grown-up band of followers

C D

Told the kids to go away.

Chorus:

G

Let the children come.

C D

Don't dare drive them away.

G

In them the Kingdom comes,

C G

Hear the Holy, foolish things they say.

C G

The springtime of their life decides

C G

The adults they'll become.

C G

So let the children come,

C G

Please let the children come.

Verse 2:

G

The golden gift of childhood

C D

Lasts a lifetime if you try.

G

The simple trusting faith they own

C D

Keeps scholars mystified.

C G

And so the Lord adopts us,

C G

For His daughters and His sons.

C G

For the Kingdom is for children,

C G

So please let the children come.

This is another great example of God's love for us! This is pretty close

to the original song, you could try adding a capo, but I think it sounds

okay this way. Tell me what you think.
