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!
As a child created by God, the speaker and the lamb are no different. Both exemplify the qualities of Christ on earth.
The Lamb
