Little lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing woolly bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
Little lamb, I'll tell thee, Little lamb,
I'll tell thee: He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is meek and He is mild;
He became a little child.
I, a child, and thou a lamb,
We are called by His name.
Little lamb, God bless thee!
Little lamb God bless thee.
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing woolly bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is mild; little child.
I, a child, and thou a lamb,
We are called by His name.
