Ten Little Christians
Ten little Christians came to church all the time.
One fell out with the preacher…then there were nine.
Nine little Christians stayed up late.
One overslept on Sunday, then there were eight.
Eight little Christians on their way to Heaven,
One took the low road and then there were seven.
Seven little Christians chirping like chicks.
One didn’t like the singing and then there were six.
Six little Christians seemed very much alive,
One took a vacation and then there were five.
Five little Christians asking for more…..
One took a rest awhile and then there were four.
Four little Christians, each busy as a bee…
One got his feelings hurt and then there were three.
Three little Christians couldn’t decide what to do.
One couldn’t have his way and then there were two.
Two little Christians, each won, one more.
Now don’t you see, two and two make four?
Four little Christians worked early and late.
Each brought one and then there were eight.
Eight little Christians… if they double as before
In just seven Sundays we’ll have one thousand twenty four!
In this jingle, there is a lesson true,
You belong either to the building or the wrecking crew!
