Live Love Out
01:51
|

|
It’s a lazy life living in a zoo
Sitting and eating, nothing else to do
It’s a lonely life waiting in your house
For God to come over and
to call you out!
Come on!
Ay-yi-yi Let’s go out
Ay-yi-yi live love out
Ay-yi-yi if you dare
Ay-yi-yi-yi it’s a jungle out there!
Tiger on the prowl: Grrrr!
Monkey in the tree: Oo oo ee ee!
God is calling us out: Come on!
To love courageously!

Whatever I'm Feeling

When I’m happy and feeling good
It’s easy for me to act like I should
But when I’m angry or feeling sad,
It’s hard to do good when I feel bad
Whatever I’m feeling, happy or sad
Whatever I’m feeling, good or bad
Whatever I’m feeling run through my mind
God help me to be kind.
When I’m singing a song of victory
Or losing the game and clinching my teeth…rrrrrrrrr!

Hammer! Hammer! Hammer!
02:18

Take a brick. Take some mud
Come on friends, stack them up
We’re building a home of hope and love
Take some walls. Add a roof
Build with love. It’s what we do!
We’re building a home of hope and love
Hammer! Hammer! Hammer! (Hammer hammer hammer!)
Saw! Saw! Saw! (Saw saw saw!)
Hoping! Hoping! Hoping! (Hoping hoping hoping!)
In God’s love for us all!

Nebuchadnezzar (doo doo da loo)
Can I call you Nebu?
Nebu, please try to understand!
Nebuchadnezzar
Can I call you, Nebu?
Nebu, we’ll never worship you!
We know you built a statue
of yourself made all in gold
rising high above the city,
for all the people to behold,
We know the others are impressed,
which makes us kind of odd
but the only one we’ll worship
is the Lord our God!
We know you built a furnace
Got it burning really hot, hot, hot
to scare us into turning
away from our God
And though it may look easy
it’s something we’d regret.
Some days being faithful
means you got to sweat!
We’re sorry Nebu,
you’re not used to hearing "no"
but I’ll tell you,
you can’t buy our faith with gold.
We’re sorry Nebu,
but if you want an honest friend,
Roast them s’mores by the fire
And don’t try to throw them in!!!!!
Because Marshmallows get hot hot hot
And the chocolate melts melts melts
Marshmallows get hot hot hot
And the chocolate melts melts melts
Marshmallows get hot hot hot
And the chocolate melts melts melts
Marshmallows get hot hot hot hot hot
And the chocolate melts melts melts melts melts melts!

We Will Not Be Afraid

Is that a lion that I hear?
Or an angry zombie deer?
Did my flashlight disappear?
I can hear it drawing near!!!
Through the wind and the rain,
Through the fire and the flames,
God’s love is still the same,
and we will not be afraid!
I don’t need a sword or spear
when the Giant’s drawing near
For my God is always here.
I have nothing left to fear!

How I Became a Disciple
02:34
|
|||
|
I was a fisherman, always out there fishing.
Then Jesus came and called my name,
And that’s how I became a
Disciple, disciple, I put down my net
And picked me up a Bible, Bible,
And the good news that I heard I’m now telling you
Now I’m feeding the hungry, healing the sick
Giving hope to those in prison,
And I’m gonna stick with it
Because I’m a

God's Eyes
02:47
|
|||
|
God’s eyes are brighter than the sun
God’s arms are stronger than the storm
Our God who found us in the dark
Will hold us forevermore
When the rain falls, drip drip dripping on our head
In the dark night, when we can’t see what’s ahead…
Our faith tells us instead

Love Me Just the Same
02:35
|
|||
|
I may feel like a flea
hopping around, trying to be seen
But I don’t need any wings
My God already loves me
I could fly like a butterfly, Light up the night like a firefly
Climb up in a tree and call your name “Hey Jesus!”
But you will love me just the same!
I may feel like a gnat
I’m never heard, only swatted at
But I don’t need you to hear me sing
My God already loves me
I could buzz like a bumble bee and join the cricket symphony
Climb up in a tree and call your name “Hey Jesus!”
But you will love me just the same!
So I gathered all the ants and ticks and flies
Grasshoppers, crickets, and other passersby
A hornet even brought a wasp
Even bugs have to carry their cross!

Pulled by the Promise
01:57
|
|||
|
I was dropped in the river before I could swim
Clinging to the basket I was floating in
I was pulled by the promise of God
The Lord spoke to me from a burning flame
God gave me a job, and gave me a name
I was pulled by the promise of God
The promise of God will pull on you
like an old cow caught in a lasso loop
Following, leading, and carrying on
From the ranch to the great beyond
Up on the mountain, God gave us the Law
To love one another and through it all
We’ll be pulled by the promise of God

How Many Times
02:16
|
|||
|
How many many many many many many many many times?
How many many many many many many many many times?
How many times must I forgive?
I gotta forgive as I’m forgiven.
That’s how many many many many many many times.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 times
Times 1 2 3 4 5 6 70 times!
How many times must I forgive?
I gotta forgive as I’m forgiven.
That’s how many many many many many many times.
If you're my brother or my sister,
father or mother, I gotta forgive her.
If he’s friendly or an enemy,
God help me forgive
So many many many many many many many times.
How many many many many many many many times?
How many times must I forgive?
I gotta forgive as I’m forgiven,
That’s how many many many many many many times.

Baby (Wake's Lullaby)
02:35
|
|||
|
Baby, waiting, planning, staging
all to bring you home.
Baby, sweetly, come to meet me,
I'm the one who's smiling.
Baby sleeping, swaddled to me,
long as arms can hold.
Baby given, gift of heaven,
God to mom and me.
