The Crayon Box Song

When I was just a little child no higher than your knee, My
mother bought a box of crayons, just for me. I picked them
up and I opened them up and I looked way down inside, And
the colors there reminded me of Jesus when He died.

                    O...Red is the color of the blood that He shed,
             Brown is for the crown of thorns they laid upon His head.
                          Blue is for royalty, which in Him did dwell,
                  And yellow is for the Christian who�s afraid to tell.

           I colored and I colored �til the crayons were all gone, And
           though I am much older now, the mem�ry lingers on. And when
           I see a little child with crayon box in hand, I tell them what
           they mean to me and hope they�ll understand.

                      O...Red is the color of the blood that He shed,
              Brown is for the crown of thorns they laid upon His head.
                           Blue is for royalty, which in Him did dwell,
                   And yellow is for the Christian who�s afraid to tell.

            Afraid to tell of a Savior who died on Calvary, He died for
            lowly sinners just like you and me, And someday soon He�s
            coming back to be our King, And the colors in the crayon
            box you will sing.

                     O...Red is the color of the blood that He shed,
              Brown is for the crown of thorns they laid upon His head.
                          Blue is for royalty, which in Him did dwell,
                   And yellow is for the Christian who�s afraid to tell.
                     So, don�t you be a Christian, who�s afraid to tell!

"Books of the Bible� Song

INTRODUCTION
With a well-known melody,
You'll hear some words quite new,
To learn God's books from memory,
This song will help you through.

VERSE 1
Ge-ne-sis and Ex-o-dus,
Then we have Le-vit-i-cus.
Josh-ua, Judg-es, Ruth God brings,
Two of Sam-uel, two of Kings,
First and second chron-i-cles,
All about lifes chal-len-ges.

VERSE 2
Ez-ra, Ne-he-mi-ah next,
Est-her, Job, and Psalms, great text!
Pro-verbs, ec-cle-si-as-tes,
Song of Sol-o-mon will please,
I-sai-ah, Jer-e-mi-ah,
La-men-ta-tions then you saw,

VERSE 3
E-zek-iel and Dan-i-el,
Ho-se-a and then Jo-el.
Am-os, O-ba-di-ah, who?,
Jo-nah,Mi-cah, Na-hum too,
What a name like Ha-bak-kuk,
Zeph-an-i-ah, are you stuck?

VERSE 4
Hag-gai, Zech-a-ri-ah then,
Mal-a-chi will mark the end,
Of the test-a-ment of old,
With all those events fore-told,
Now its the new test-a-ment,
All about the Son He sent.

VERSE 5
Mat-thew, Mark and Luke and John,
Acts and Ro-mans, Corint-thi-ans.
Ga-la-tians, E-phe-si-ans,
Phil-lip-ians, Co-los-si-ans,
Thes-sa-lon-ians, one and two,
Tim-o-thy and Ti-tus too.

VERSE 6
Now we come to Phil-e-mon,
He-brews, James, Pe-ter and John.
Jude is very near the end,
Re-ve-la-tion is the end,
Read these books your faith they'll prod,
Since they are the word of God!
