PALM SUNDAY CELEBRATION

Palm Sunday serves as an opportunity to praise Jesus for all He means to us and for all He has done for us. 

“Palm Sunday Celebration” is an upbeat song from the donkey’s perspective which kids will never forget!  The chorus is so fun:  A hee hee haw – here a hee – there a haw – everywhere a hee haw…”  

The verses clearly define what this day is all about:  “Sunday is the day so everybody wave. Sing out hosanna for Jesus saves…”

Listen to a song clip HERE.

“Palm Sunday Celebration” is on Sing through the Year album.  Order HERE.

Curriculum to accompany Sing through the Year album is available HERE.

A DAD LIKE YOU - Father's Day Song

You were there to pick me up
When I skinned my knees again
It went away when you said “it’s okay”
I’m so glad we’re friends
Chorus:
So many can be a father
But not just anyone can be a dad
It takes someone like you to love me like you do
It takes a daddy
It takes a dad, like you
La la la la la…etc.
You listened to me when I went on and on
You only fell asleep one time
If I could choose, I would pick you
I’m so glad you’re mine
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
There’s only one Heavenly Father
Who always walks and talks with me
And He’s always there in my heart
He will never leave
He’s holding me
You kept me safe when what I did was wrong
You showed me the right way
With all that we’ve done, I see how far I’ve come
And I thank you for yesterday

The song begins:
It’s cold and dark and wet down here
I’m feeling kind of strange, I am scared

It’s a terrible day
I never wanna run from God again

So if you let me out the way I came in
I’ll go to Ninevah

Some of the lyrics say:
What if everybody threw their trash on the ground
There’d be a big mess all around

What if everybody didn’t read the signs
They didn’t wait or stand in line
There would be chaos all the time
What if everybody did that
What if everybody did that

BALAAM'S DONKEY



First verse of the song says:

 Old Balaam was a prophet
So full of greed and pride
He failed to even stop and pray
Or hide God’s word inside
He went along his merry way
As many people do
But God sent an angel to talk to him
To prevent him from passing through
Kids love singing the chorus which says:
And God used a donkey
He he he he haw haw
God used a donkey
And that’s what Balaam saw

Song can be viewed on Mary Rice Hopkins & Puppets with a Heart DVD.
