I may never zoom o'er the enemy.
But I'm in the Lord's army!
I'm in the Lord's army – Yes Sir!
I'm in the Lord's army – Yes Sir!

Songs and Poems:

Grand Old Duke of York

Oh, the grand old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up
to the top of the hill
and he marched them down again.
When they were up, they were up
and when they were down,
 they were down
and when they were only halfway up
they were neither up nor down.

 

I'm in the Lord's Army

I may never march in the infantry,
ride in the cavalry, shoot the artillery.
I may never zoom o'er the enemy.
But I'm in the Lord's army!
I'm in the Lord's army – Yes Sir!
I'm in the Lord's army – Yes Sir!

(Repeat all)

 

Only a Boy Named David

Only a boy named David.
Only a little sling.
Only a boy named David.
But he did pray and sing.

Only a boy named David.
Only a rippling brook
Only a boy named David
But five little stones he took.

And one little stone went in the sling
And the sling went round and round.
And one little stone went in the sling
And the sling went round and round.
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round and round!

And one little stone went up in the air -
And the giant came tumbling down!

 

Hold Your Hand
(From Theme Escapades: Learning Units for all Occasions by Laverne Waverly and Ken Craycraft. Good Apple: 1992.)
(Tune: 'The Muffin Man')

Oh, can you hold your hand up high?
Your hand up high? Your hand up high?
Oh, can you hold your hand up high?
Up in the air!

Oh, can you hold your hand down low?
Your hand down low?  Your hand down low?
Oh, can you hold your hand down low?
Down near the ground!

(Repeat while holding different objects and inserting the object's name instead of 'hand'.)

 

Trust and Obey

Trust and obey.
 For there's no other way
to be happy in Jesus.
 But to trust and obey.

 

Hokey Pokey

You put your right foot in.
You put your right foot out.
You put your right foot in.
And you shake it all about!
You do the Hokey Pokey,
and you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

(Additional Movements -  left foot, right hand, left hand,
right side, left side, nose, backside, head, whole self )

 

Little David (Play On Your Harp)
Little David.
Play on your harp.
Hallelu! Hallelu!
Little David.
Play on your harp.
Hallelu!
(Repeat.)

Little David was a shepherd boy -
He killed Goliath and shouted for joy!

Songs and Poems:

Old King Cole

Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
and a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe
in the middle of the night
And he called for his fiddlers three.
Every fiddler had a fine fiddle,
 and a very fine fiddle had he;
Oh there's none so rare
 as can compare
With King Cole
and his fiddlers three.

 

This Is the Day

This is the day. (Echo.)
That the Lord has made. (Echo.)
I will rejoice. (Echo.)
And be glad in it! (Echo.)
This is the day that the Lord has made!
I will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day. (Echo.)
That the Lord has made!

 

I Have the Joy Down In My Heart

I have the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart.
Where?Down in my heart.
Where?
Down in my heart.
I have the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart.
Down in my heart to stay!
And I'm so happy.
So very happy.
I have the love of Jesus in my heart.
(Repeat.)

 

Hands and Fingers
(From perpetualpreschool.com)

Move your hands as you recite this poem…

Up and down,
round and round (draw circles in the air)
put your fingers on the ground.
Over (hold hands above lap)
 under (move hands below legs)
 in between (you've hidden your hands in between your legs)
Now my fingers can't be seen!
Hands in front.
Hands behind.
Now my hands I cannot find. 
Here's my left hand.
here's my right.
Hands and fingers back in sight (wriggle fingers).
