Child of God

Words and music – traditional, African-American
Additional new verse by Daria Marmaluk-Hajioannou

I heard this song at my daughter’s school and added a new verse about peace.

 

If anybody asks you who I am, who I am, who I am
If anybody asks you who I am
Tell them I’m a child of God

Mary rocked the cradle, peace on earth, peace on earth, peace on earth
Mary rocked the cradle, peace on earth
For every little child of God

I’m walking and I’m talking now for peace on earth,
peace on earth, peace on earth
I’m walking and I’m talking now for peace on earth
For every little child of God

If anybody asks you who I am, who I am, who I am
If anybody asks you who I am
Tell them I’m a child of God
