God Made a Promise
02:45
|
|||
|
God made a promise,
Yes, yippee!
God made a promise to you and me,
God made a promise for all who believe,
And His promise was the Baby Jesus.
God made the donkey for Mary to ride,
And Joseph, her husband walked along beside,
They knock'd at the inn but no room was there,
So they went to the stable cold and bare.
God made a promise,
Yes, yippee!
God made a promise to you and me,
God made a promise for all who believe,
And His promise was the Baby Jesus.
The donkey and cows saw the baby born,
Mary wrapped Him in a blanket oh, so war,.
She laid Him in a manger for all to see,
Jesus the King of Eternity.
God made a promise,
Yes, yippee!
God made a promise to you and me,
God made a promise for all who believe,
And His promise was the Baby Jesus.
God made a star that shone so bright,
It guided the wise men both day and night,
God sent the angels to the shepherd sin the fields,
And they all sang Hallelujah!
God made a promise,
Yes, yippee!
God made a promise to you and me,
God made a promise for all who believe,
And His promise was the Baby Jesus.

Colours of Christmas

|

What are the colours of Christmas?
They shine for us to see.
They tell the Christmas story
Of the Babe who set us free.
Mary is the Christmas blue,
Straw of yellow in the manger,
Donkey grey who brought her there
Safe from any danger.
What are the colours of Christmas?
They shine for us to see.
They tell the Christmas story
Of the Babe who set us free.
Brown is Joseph's robe he wore,
And shepherds watching at the door,
White they angels that they saw,
Singing Hallelujah!
What are the colours of Christmas?
They shine for us to see.
They tell the Christmas story
Of the Babe who set us free.
Christmas red and purple gold,
The wise men from afar,
Following God's promise told,
The shining Christmas star.
What are the colours of Christmas?
They shine for us to see.
They tell the Christmas story
Of the Babe who set us free.

Autumn leaves are on the tree,
How many colours can you see?
Red and yellow and orange and brown,
The autumn leaves come floating down.
Red is a colour God made for me,
A red, red leaf on the autumn tree.
If I listen when the wind comes along,
I can hear God singing His autumn song.
Autumn leaves are on the tree,
How many colours can you see?
Red and yellow and orange and brown,
The autumn leaves come floating down.
Yellow is a colour God made for me...
Orange is a clour God made for me...

Flying around in the big blue sky,
They heard that Jesus would set us free,
So one lovely angel went to see.

And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us,
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power
and the glory are Yours,
Forever and ever, Amen.

|
Jesus loves my eyes and Jesus loves my nose,
He loves me from my head to the bottom of my toes,
Yes, Jesus loves loves my heart and my fingertips too,
He loves all of me,
And He loves all of you!
He loves my elbows and He loves my knees,
He loves my mouth when I say 'Yes please!'
He loves my shoulders and He loves my chin,
He loves it when I sing a song for Him!
Jesus loves my eyes and Jesus loves my nose,
He loves me from my head to the bottom of my toes,
Yes, Jesus loves loves my heart and my fingertips too,
He loves all of me,
And He loves all of you!
But Jesus doesn't like it when I'm feeling sad,
He loves it when I'm happy,
But it hurts Him when I'm bad,
He likes it when I clap, And loves it when I sing,
And when I help my friends and do kind things.
Jesus loves my eyes and Jesus loves my nose,
He loves me from my head to the bottom of my toes,
Yes, Jesus loves loves my heart and my fingertips too,
He loves all of me,
And He loves all of you!

Window in Heaven
03:46
|
|||
|
For a time in my life, I found a place.
There was hope, there was joy, I felt safe.
There was laughter, there was light,
And I knew I'd be alright,
I could grow, I could learn, I could love.
God sent me a gift from above.
There's a window in heaven that's opened for me,
I just have to have faith God is whispering to me,
That my Lord has a plan; He loves me just as I am,
He has opened a window for me.
Now I know I'll never know what tomorrow will hold,
When I look at the sun as it sets,
And I pray it's not over yet -
That my love can be part of the plan.
God can use me just as I am.
There's a window in heaven that's opened for me...
Oh, my life is ever-changing, it will never stay the same.
Seasons whirling ever round me, and I don't want to change,
And I don't want to know that I have to let go,
I just have to be strong and go on.
There's a window in heaven that's opened for me...

Pray with me, let sadness end.
With our hearts and with our hands,
Let's make God's world a peaceful land.
