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, then there were seven.Seven Little Christians, chirping like chicks;One didn’t like the singing, then there were six.Six Little Christians seemed very much alive;One took a vacation, then there were five.Five Little Christians pulling for Heaven’s shore;One stopped to take a rest, then there were four.Four Little Christians each as busy as a bee;One had his feelings hurt, then there were three.Three Little Christians couldn’t decide what to do;One couldn’t have his way, then there were two.Two Little Christians each won one more;Now don’t you see, two plus two equals four.Four Little Christians worked early and late;Each brought one, now there were eight.Eight Little Christians if they double as before;In just seven Sundays, we have one thousand twenty-four.In this jingle there is a lesson true;You belong either to the building, or to the wrecking crew.
