The Lamb


Little Lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
Gave thee life and bid thee feed,
By the stream ; o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, wooly, 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 ; He is mild;
He became a little child.
I a child ; thou a lamb.
We are called by his name.
Little Lamb, God bless thee!
Little Lamb, God bless thee!
by William Blake (1757 - 1826

Behold, the Lord God shall come with a strong hand, And His arm shall rule for Him;Behold, His reward is with Him, And His work before Him. He will gather the lambs with His arm, And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young. Isaiah 40:10 - 11
