Towards First Communion – a song
Benny, seminarian in the Saint James Vicariate, prepared a group of almost fifty children over the period of a year in order that they might receive first communion. He composed a song in preparation for the celebration.

Words:
Let the children come to me,
Do not stand in their way,
Let the children come to me,
Thus says the Lord.
For theirs is the Kingdom of God,
For theirs is the Kingdom of God,
For theirs is the Kingdom of God,
Thus says the Lord.
Anyone who does not receive as a child,
As a child receives,
The Kingdom of God,
Will not enter it.
Anyone who receives
One child like this one in my name,
Receives me and my Father.
