The title of the song I remember was "Jesus Loves the Little Children." It is a happy little refrain celebrating love for children "red, yellow, black and white" all around the earth. The dichotomy of this song is that the original music to which this sweet lyric is set, actually began as a Civil War marching song, entitled "Tramp, Tramp, Tramp!" ON A CHILDHOOD SUNDAY SONG explores that opposing dichotomy of inspiration. George Frederick Root was a very prolific composer in 19th century America with over 500 pieces of music published. These include songs, cantatas, hymns, instructional works and minstrel arrangements.
