Breakfast church - kids songs?
Playing in Sunday School
Choruses
Give me oil in my lamp
This Little Light of Mine
He's Got the Whole World In His Hands
Jesus Loves Me This I Know
Enjoyed rediscovering assembly hymns
And can it be
Dear Lord and father of mankind
O worship the king all glorious above
O worship the King all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love:
Our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days, pavilioned in splendour and girded with praise.
Didn't really think at the time
happy to sing 'pavilioned ...'
but didn't know what it meant
needed to be 'on the inside'
Choice: beautiful but complex hymns, or simplistic 'choruses'
Neither of which had any connection with the songs outside the doors of church
So, started to look for songs that were accessible to children, but had meaning to adults - on the outside
Spring Harvest -children's songs
Realised some people were doing what I wanted
Songs that respected children's sophistication, and didn't make too many assumptions
Music that kids (and non churched adults) could relate to Yes - simpler than the great hymns - but accessible
Amassed a collection
Out of the ark, same boat music
That's what it's all about!
