Gather Round Children

I wrote this one back in May following a children's sermon at OX Hill Baptist Church

Gather Round Children

Gather round children
I’ll tell you a story
About our Lord Jesus
And all of His glory

A story that starts
With miraculous birth
And ends with Lord Jesus
Ascending from earth

The stories of how
He went town to town
Fighting the devil
Till the devil was down

Telling all who would listen
About the Good News
And given us choices
From which we can choose

A story of turning
The water to wine
And all the great things
That He did in kind

You’ll hear how he healed
The sick and the lame
And did everything
In His Father’s name

How he taught us to live out
Our lives every day
And how we should set out
Some time just to pray

How he gave us hope
When all hope was lost
How he died for our sins
Up there on the cross

Yes, gather round children
Together we’ll pray
And thank the good Lord
For another great day
And when we are done
All God’s children did say
AMEN
