"Jesus Loves the Little Children" does appeal to common cultural heritage that transcends party lines, but the "red, yellow, black, or white" phrase has been updated in many churches trying to avoid singing about colors of people who don't exist. But even if she sang
"Every color, every race, all are covered by his grace" the lyric is meaningless when it comes to homophobia. Nearly every bigot will say "Hate the sin, love the sinner," and will defend oppressive laws that harm gays as for their own good to discourage their "choice"
Those motivated to anti-gay bigotry by their religion absolutely insist they are motivated by love (except for Westboro cranks) and that accepting gays is harmful. The idea that all are loved is nice, but it's love with a big stick
