Jesus Loves the Little Children
Song lyrics to the classic children’s hymn, ‘Jesus Loves the Little Children’, words written by preacher Clare Herbert Woolston, sung to the 1864 Civil War tune ‘Tramp! Tramp! Tramp!’ by George Fredrick Root; the song is inspired by Matthew 19:14: Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They’re all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world
Whether you’re rich or whether you’re poor
It matters not to Him
He remembers where you’re going
Not where you’ve been
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They’re all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world
If your heart is troubled
Don’t worry, don’t you fret
He knows that you have heard His call
And he won’t forget
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They’re all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world
All around the world tonight
His children rest assured
That He will watch and He will keep us
Safe and secure
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow, red and white
They’re all precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world
