Jesus Loves the Little Children is one of the first few songs people learn at church when they are kids. The lyrics to this song are popular to people around the world. It is considered a nursery rhyme, a hymn, and a prayer.
Written by George Frederick Root, the tune was set to an 1864 Civil War song called, “Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys are Marching.” Later another version of the lyric was written by Clare Herbert Woolston, one of Root’s favorite lyricists.
Lyrics for ‘Jesus Loves The Little Children’
Jesus loves the little children,
All the children of the world.
Red and yellow, black and white,
All are precious in His sight,
Jesus loves the little children of the world.
Jesus died for all the children,
All the children of the world;
Red and yellow, black and white,
They are precious in his sight;
Jesus died the little children of the world.
Jesus rose for all the children,
All the children of the world;
Red and yellow, black and white,
They are precious in his sight;
Jesus rose the little children of the world.
Jesus lives for all the children,
All the children of the world;
Red and yellow, black and white,
They are precious in his sight;
Jesus lives for all the children of the world.
Jesus wants the little children,
To be careful what they do;
Honor father, mother dear,
Keep their hearts so full of cheer;
Then He’ll take them home to glory by and by.
