East Baptist Church, Girard Ave. and E. Columbia Clarence Herbert Woolston, Doctor of Divinity Ever hear of him? Let’s start with this, the refrain to the greatest children’s song of all time: 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 This song is one big glorious standard children love still. In writing the song, Jesus Loves the Little Children, Woolston turned the melody from a brutal marching song of the Civil War titled Tramp Tramp Tramp into a sweet, peaceful lesson in harmony. The song was originally used by soldiers to encourage each other’s march to their horrible, final demise. “Just over that ridge, boys!”
