Zacchaeus was a wee little man, A wee little man was he.
(using both hands, make it look like you are showing the
size of a very small man.)
He climbed up in the sycamore tree, the Savior for to see.
(using both hands act as though you are climbing up a
tree)
And when the Savior passed that way, He looked up in the tree,
(using you fingers, make it look as though someone is
walking.)
And he said, "Zacchaeus, you come down from there;
For I'm going to your house today, for I'm going to your house today."
(Start clapping your hands when singing this verse.)
And Zacchaeus came down from that tree, and he said,
"What a better man I'll be. I'll give my money to the poor.
What a better man I'll be. What a better man I'll be."

Zacchaeus was a wee little man,
a wee little man was he.
He
came down from the sycamore tree.
With the Lord he wanted to be.
And as they ate some people said
that Jesus was a sinner's guest.
But Jesus said: "I came to seek the lost."
And Zacchaeus gave his
money to the poor.
And Zacchaeus gave his money to the poor.
Thanks to Rev. Benfield for sending this verse in!
Zacchaeus was a happy man,
and a happy man was he.
For he had seen the Lord that day,
and a happy man was he
and a happy man was he.

Zacchaeus was a curious man,
and a curious man was he
He climbed down from the sycamore tree,
with the Lord he wanted to
be.
And as they ate,
some people said Christ acted shamefully.
But he said, "I came to seek the lost,
and those who are far
away,
and those who are far away.
Zacchaeus
was a happy man,
and a happy man was he.
The Lord had shown how
God's love
could set a sinner free.
As Zacchaeus stood to speak,
still no one could believe.
And they said, "Zacchaeus, you're not
the same!"
Zacchaeus gave his money away!
Zacchaeus gave his money away!
