Lyrics for our new Kid's Worship CD "Undignified"
Be Unified
(Sung to the tune of “Louie, Louie”)
Chorus: Be unified
So Jesus will be glorified
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
(Repeat)
Verse 1: The hands like to serve and
the arms want to give
The eyes see what’s right and wrong and how to live
The shoulders of the body help to lead the way
They all work together each and every day.
(Chorus)
Verse 2: An encouraging word from
the mouth is kind
Teaching the word is a lot like the mind
We all work together to the beat of the heart
Serving each other by doing our part.
(Chorus)
Verse 3: The Church is the body
With Jesus the head.
We must love each other ‘cause that’s what he said
I need you and you need me
The body of Christ must be in unity.
(Chorus)
The Blessing Song
I am redeemed from the
curse
I am blessed beyond words
I am the light of the world
I am free
(repeat)
When the enemy tries to
make me believe
anything other than God’s word
That’s when I start confessing who I am in Christ
And the curses turn to blessings right before my eyes
I am redeemed from the
curse
I am blessed beyond words
I am the light of the world
I am free
(repeat)
When the enemy tries to
make me believe
anything other than God’s word
That’s when I start confessing who I am in Christ
And the curses turn to blessings right before my eyes
I am redeemed from the
curse
I am blessed beyond words
I am the light of the world
I am free
(repeat)
The Armor of God Song
(16 count intro)
Chorus 1:
With the shield of faith (repeat)
And the sword of the Spirit (repeat)
Share God’s love (repeat)
To the World ‘til they hear it (repeat)
Put the breastplate on (repeat)
Stand strong in the Spirit (repeat)
Shout Hallelujah (repeat)
(8 counts)
Verse 1:
I was feeling depressed
Something less than victorious
Where was the life so blessed and glorious?
I was reeling
From a feeling
Lost like a dog in the fog in Seattle
Need direction
Some protection
Don’t want to lose or be bruised in the battle.
(8 counts)
Repeat Chorus 1
(8 counts)
Verse 2:
Puttin’ on the armor makes me feel a little stronger
Prayin’ in the Spirit helps me fight a little longer
But I’m hit hard
Caught off guard
Leveled by the devil, ‘cause I didn’t have my hat on
Get my shoes on
Get a move on
Back to attack with the belt of truth on.
(8 counts)
Chorus 2:
Beautiful feet (repeat)
Take peace to the nations (repeat)
Cover yourself (repeat)
With the helmet of salvation (repeat)
The belt of truth (repeat)
Is your final preparation (repeat)
Shout hallelujah (repeat)
(16 count claps)
Chorus 3:
With the shield of faith
And the sword of the Spirit
Share God’s love
To the World ‘til they hear it
Put the breastplate on
Stand strong in the Spirit
Shout Hallelujah
Beautiful feet
Take peace to the nations
Cover yourself
With the helmet of salvation
The belt of truth
Is your final preparation
Shout hallelujah
4 counts
Repeat chorus 3
Shout hallelujah (3x)

Undignified
I will dance, I will sing to be mad for my king
Nothing, Lord, is hindering the passion in my soul
I will dance, I will sing to be mad for my king
Nothing, Lord, is hindering the passion in my soul
And I'll become
Even more undignified than this
Some would say it's foolishness
But I'll become
Even more undignfied than this
Na, na, na, na, na! Hey! Na, na, na, na, na! Hey!
Na, na, na, na, na! Hey! Na, na, na, na, na! Hey!
Na, na, na, na, na! Hey! Na, na, na, na, na! Hey!
Na, na, na, na, na! Hey!
The Serving Song
Chorus:
The kingdom of Heaven (repeat)
Is upside down (repeat)
The poor are rich (repeat)
And the lost are found (repeat)
The last are first (repeat)
But the greatest rule (repeat)
Is those who serve (repeat)
Will reign and rule (repeat)
Hmmmmm. Dig it! Hmmmmm.
Verse 1:
The disciples were assembled in an Upper Room.
Jesus knew that he would have to leave them soon.
So humbly (humb-el-ly)
On bended knee
He started washing feet in the family.
Hmmmmm. Dig it! Hmmmmm.
(Chorus)
Verse 2:
Washin’ their feet with the water in a bowl
Teachin’ them to serve was the Master’s goal
When he came to Pete’s feet
The Master took a seat.
Peter stood up and tried to retreat.
Hmmmmm. Dig it! Hmmmmm.
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
Peter cried, “Lord this can not be!”
And Jesus said, “Then you can not be part of me.”
Then Peter said,
“Oh Lord instead,
Wash me all from my toes to my head.”
Rejoice in the Lord
Verse:
Rise up my soul from your sleeping; arise
There is no need to hide from the light
For there is a hope and that hope has a name
So rise up my soul from your sleeping; arise
Verse:
Rise up my hands and worship Him; arise
For it's by His grace that we are justified
So clap your songs of praise
Reach to the sky and fan the flames
Rise up my hands and worship Him; arise
Chorus:
Rejoice in the Lord, Rejoice in the Lord
Rejoice in the Lord, Rejoice in the Lord
Verse:
Rise up my voice and shout His name on high
Don't be afraid to make a holy cry
For the Lord our God is worthy
Of all honor and glory
So rise up my voice and shout His name on high
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Shout to God from the mountains
Shout to God from your soul
Creation longs for more of Him
So let the river flow
(Repeat Chorus)
Rejoice in the Lord, Rejoice in the Lord
The I Can Can-Can
Peter barely stayed afloat
The weather rocked his tiny boat
But out from on the stormy sea
Jesus told them “Follow me”
Peter started overboard
His eyes were fixed upon the Lord
And even though he almost drowned
In no one else could faith be found
I can do all things through
Christ who strengthens me
You can too if only you would just believe
I can, you can, Jesus said, “Be not afraid”
We can do the I Can Can Can every day and every day and every day and every
day. Hey!
Hey! Hey!
CAN CAN
David was a little boy
A slingshot was his only toy
Watching o’er his little lambs
He killed the lions with his hands
So when the giant pulled a punch
And offered David up for lunch
The last thing Old Goliath heard
Was David calling out these words.
Chorus
CAN CAN
Bridge:
Consider Abraham and Noah and the rest
Because they trusted God they always past the test
They are the best, I must confess, I would do less unless I learn to say
that
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME.
Tame Your Tongue
Chorus
Tame your tongue
You will be glad when the day is done
When you are angry or feeling mad
You’ll be glad
When you count to three
James 1, 2, Chapter 3.
Verse 1
Consider a spark
Just a flame that lights the dark
But then a gentle breeze
Blows through the trees
It starts a fire
Watch the flames grow higher and higher
When you light up the dark
Consider a spark
Chorus
Verse 2
Consider the fit
Of a horse’s bridle and bit
That tiny rod will guide
The horse where you want to ride
Just a tug of the reins
He’s the beast, but you’re the brains
It’s just a bit, of course
Consider the horse.
Musical Bridge
Chorus
Optional Verse
Consider a trip
A vacation upon a ship
The ship is large and wide
But there on it’s underside
A tiny rudder hides
Moves the ship port to starboard side
You would be wise to note
Consider the boat.
I Want Some More Of It
Verse 1
I have to confess it
I'm a child of the king
and in the name of Jesus
I can do all things.
Yes, I 'm an overcomer
by the blood of the lamb
and by my testimony.
My father's name is Abba; I'm the son of I Am
Chorus
I like it!
I love it!
I want some more of it.
I try so hard
and He helps me overcome it.
Don't know what it is 'bout this lovin' God of mine
Oh but, I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it.
Verse 2
Just like brother Paul said,
Because of Calvary
I no longer liveth
But Jesus lives in me.
So when the devil starts up
Talkin' trash about my past,
I tell him of his future.
That gets his attention and he shuts up real fast
Chorus
Bridge
If you will confess it
And by his will are led
If you will profess it
God will do just what He said
