Life is Good
Life is good! When you're
feeling bad, your mama brings you ice cream.
Life is good! When it storms outside, there's a rainbow on the way.
Life is good! When your heart is hurt, somebody's gonna hug you.
Life is good! Even if you're bad, Jesus takes your sins away.
I hear some folks say the road of
life is bumpy,
If they kissed a prince, they would wind up with a toad.
I hear some folks say that life is such a burden,
All they have to do is let Jesus take the load.
Repeat 1st chorus
And I'm oh, so glad Jesus walks with me today. Life is GOOD!
Daddy, won't you read to me the
Bible so I'll know,
The way that I should live, the way that I should grow.
Daddy, won't you read to me of kings and prophets, too,
The same good stories that your daddy read to you.
Of Daniel in the lion's den who
made the beasts lay down,
Of David and his little sling, Goliath on the ground.
Of Ruth who said to Naomi, "Where you go I'll go."
Of Joshua who flattened all the wall of Jericho.
Daddy, won't you read to me the
Bible so I'll be,
The kind of person that God has in mind for me.
Daddy, won't you read to me the things that Jesus knew,
The same good stories that your daddy read to you.
Of Jesus in a manger and a star
up in the sky.
Of questions in the temple and the boy who answered why.
Of miracles and parables that taught us how to love,
Of how he rose up from the grave to join God up above.
Daddy, won't you read to me the
Bible so I'll see,
The grace God has to give to children just like me,
Daddy, won't you read to me those stories old but true.
The same good stories that your daddy read to you....
So I can live my life for Jesus like you do!!
Earth Day Song (for Church Tree-Planting)
Take care of God's blessings.
Take care of the earth, the sky, the sea.
Take care of God's blessings,
He gave them to you, He gave them to me.
Make every day Earth Day
Keep everything clean as it can be
For if you would do this,
You'll take care of me.
Take care of God's blessings,
Each creature is precious in God's sight.
Take care of God's blessings,
Do all you can do to make things right
Don't waste what He gives us
Keep everything clean as it can be
For if you would do this,
You'll take care of me.
My teachers all teach and my
parents do prod
They want me to know about heaven above.
But my favorite place to learn about God,
Is with my grandparents, who teach me with love.
My grandparents have a lap full
of love.
It's a wonderful place to be.
I curl up with them in an easy chair
And they tell of God's love for me.
Their skin may be wrinkled, their
hair may be gray
But their eyes are alive with amazing grace.
They read from the Bible and teach me to pray.
I feel God's holy presence in their sweet embrace.
Repeat Chorus
For Combined Children's and
Adult Choir
Sopranos and Altos
Our Father who art in heaven, help me teach my child to pray.
Our Father who art in heaven, help me find the words to say.
Do you hear the children praying? Do you listen to every one?
Can you hear the words they're saying on bended knee when day is done?
Our Father who art in heaven, help me lead my child in prayer.
Our Father who art in heaven, please keep our children in Thy care.
2nd ending
Our Father who art in heaven, do you hear the words we say.
Our Father who art in heaven, bless all the children when they pray.
Add Tenors and Basses
Our Father up above in heaven full of love,
Please help me teach my child to pray each night and day.
Our Father up above in heaven full of love
Please help me find the words for them to say.
Do you hear the children when they're praying?
Do you listen to each and every one?
Can you hear the precious words they're saying?
On bended knee when day is done?
Our Father up above in heaven full of love,
Please help me learn to lead my little child in prayer.
Our Father in heaven, keep all the children in Thy care.
2nd ending
Our Father up above in heaven full of love,
Do you really hear the words that we all say?
Our Father in heaven, bless all the children when they pray.
Bless all the children when they pray.
Add the Children's Choir
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.
God is great, God is good. Let us thank him for our food.
By his hand we all are fed. Give us, Lord, our daily bread.
Oh, the Lord's been good to me, and so I thank the Lord
For giving me the things I need, the sun and the rain and the apple seed.
Bless this house, oh Lord, we pray. Make it safe by night and day.
God bless mom and daddy, too. Keep them safe the whole night through.
Our Father, who art in heaven, bless all the children when they pray.
Bless all the children when they pray.

Tell me why you're sighing my

Are you a doubter like most everyone?
Is God's forgiveness too much to conceive?
Do the doubts in your heart make you grieve? Just try to believe!
Repeat chorus
Tell me why you're smiling my
son,
Knowing Christ came for everyone?
Can you now feel His warm embrace?
Is that wonderful smile on your face.... from His saving grace?

We
Give Thanks
For Woodland's Church
Homecoming or Thanksgiving
For each blessing great and
small, we give thanks to Thee.
For friends and family one and all, we give thanks to Thee.
For laughter, smiles and hugs sincere
For health and freedoms we hold dear
For skies of blue and water clear, we give thanks to Thee.
For Woodland's buildings old and
new, we give thanks to Thee.
For these grounds and gardens, too, we give thanks to Thee.
For those who worked and prayed to Thee
That dreams might be reality
For vision and for victory, we give thanks to Thee.
For this church out in the wood,
we give thanks to Thee.
For these people kind and good, we give thanks to Thee.
And for Thy gift of saving grace
That comforts us, our sins erase
And gives us strength our trials to face, we give thanks to Thee.
