“Birmingham Sunday” discusses the deaths of all four girls, while “Ballad of Birmingham” focuses on the death of one girl.
In "Birmingham Sunday" Richard Farina uses verses 2-5 to identify the name of each of the four girls, giving them their own verse in the song.

The church, however, is bombed and the daughter dies.
