THE WORKS OF CHRISTOPHER DOCK
| Who only mock your Jesus, |
| Who do not love God and |
| Will not be Jesus's pupil. |
| 11. |
| Become well acquainted with Jesus |
| And sit at His feet. |
| Give Him your right hand |
| And say: Savior! |
| O, let me kiss thee. |
| 12. |
| Hang like little children |
| About His loving arms, |
| And say, He shall be merciful |
| To you children |
| And have pity on you. |
| 13. |
| He shall bless you with understanding, |
| That you avoid the bad. |
| He shall become well acquainted with you |
| As a Savior |
| Who frees you from sin. |
| 14. |
| Yes, beg Him to |
| Give you pleasure and love. |
| His dear, gentle, sweet yoke |
| Still learn as children |
| To wear thoughtfully. |
| 15. |
| He shall your youthful hearts |
| Fill with His love, |
| That it think ever heavenward, |
| And all jesting |
| Ignore for His sake. |
