While reading William Blake’s The Lamb from “Songs of Innocence”. Blake is using an apostrophe and talk to the lamb as if the lamb could understand the speaker. “Little Lamb who made thee Dost thou know who made thee” (Blake).  refer to Jesus as the Lamb of God in the Bible where the speaker asks the lamb who has made him. This image portrays closely with the poem which symbolizes a child, where a child is usually acknowledged as innocent. Having its feet tied together, the lamb is clearly shown that it is going to be slaughtered or sacrificed, just as how Jesus Christ was sacrificed on behalf of the humanity and was compared to as the Lamb. In the first stanza, Blake asks a rhetorical question the lamb who had made him. In the second stanza, Blake answered his own question by telling him who had made him. “Little Lamb I’ll tell thee! He is called by thy name, For he calls himself a Lamb” (Blake). This poem shows the positive aspects of Christianity. But it does not only cover the optimistic, it also shows that there are sufferings and evil. This also brings in other aspects to question Christianity. The question of suffering and the goodness of God has always been brought up throughout history. If there is God, and He is all loving and powerful, why would He let there be suffering in the world?
