212. Born to Rule the Earth

1 Born to rule the earth,
Born to rule the sky,
Born to rule the world
To walk upon the sea,
Little boy, little boy.

2 Jesus rule the earth,
Jesus rule the sky,
Jesus rule the world
and walk upon the sea,
Little boy, little boy.

3 Born to rule the earth,
Born to rule the sky,
Born to rule the world
To rescue you and me,
What a joy, Little boy, What a joy.
