Jesus Knows My Heart

MP3 - Jesus Knows My Heart
PDF - Jesus Knows My Heart

I had TWO Primary tunes and gave both to my collaborator, Sue Anderson. I told her to pick one and see what inspiration struck. She came up with lyrics for BOTH in no time flat. This one is a sweet song for children to sing that talks about how Jesus knows our hearts.

Ev'ry time I kneel to pray, I can talk to Jesus.
He can hear the words I say, and He knows my heart.
Through the night and ev'ry day, Jesus is my friend.
When I'm sad or all alone, blessings He will send.
Ev'ry time I kneel to pray, I can talk to Jesus,
He can hear the words I say, and He calms my heart.

Sabbath Day

MP3 - Sabbath Day
PDF - Sabbath Day

I had TWO Primary tunes and gave both to my collaborator, Sue Anderson. I told her to pick one and see what inspiration struck. She came up with lyrics for BOTH in no time flat. This one talks of how a young child can keep the Sabbath Day holy and is patterned from the church's latest push to honor the Sabbath. I hope you like it!

Sabbath Day: Keep it holy, with a heart meek and lowly.
Jesus lives: Think of Him all day long.
Don't forget what He gave you. He was born just to save you.
Follow Him, and to Him you will belong.

Read the words of the Savior. Write a note; do a favor.
Be a friend to a neighbor in need.
Go to church, ev'ry meeting. Share a smile and a greeting.
Walk His way, both in spirit and in deed.

Raise your voice and remember with a song sweet and tender
ev'ry blessing that Sunday imparts.
Say a prayer for another; love your sister and brother.
Worship Him; be like Jesus in your hearts.

I Have a Family

MP3 - I Have a Family
PDF - I Have a Family

This song is the result of a second thought. The original words that were penned for this just didn't "feel" right, so my wonderful collaborator went to work and this is the result. It is a lesson for all of us to rely completely on the Spirit and He will guide you the way you should go. This song is for Children to sing and talks about family and how the child can take an active part and feel needed in their family unit.
I Hope you like it!

I have a family, they are so dear to me,
we learn to work and play together, sharing happily.
I'm careful every day in all I do and say,
I want to show my family my love in every way.

I have a family, they are so dear to me,
we help each other when we can and do it cheerfully.
I'm thoughtful every day, in all I do and say,
I learn forgiveness, charity, and kindness as we play.

I have a family, they are so dear to me,
we want to be together now and through eternity.
I'm grateful as I pray, and always want to say
my thanks to Heavenly Father for my family each day.


E'en so Lord Jesus, Quickly Come
