VBS Songs and Lyrics


WELCOME HOME

God is our shelter

A shelter, in the middle of the storm

Everyone is welcome

To come and find a place that’s safe and warm

Welcome home

Home is a place where you feel loved

You are safe

Safe in the palm of God’s hand

You are welcome (welcome)

Welcome (welcome)

Exactly as you are

From your head to your toes

You are welcome (welcome)

Welcome (welcome)

And the feeling in your  heart

Now you know you’re welcome home

OUR HALLELUJAHS

1)  Let the rocks cry out

Let the trees clap their hands

Let creation move to the rhythm

And every little atom from the planets to the seas

Come together, to shout and sing

CHORUS:  

Our hallelujahs sound better in community

Our hosannas reach upside down and inside out

2) This big world needs me

For the life, for the love, for the beauty

Oh we all need each other to take care of our home

Come together, we can all sing along

CHORUS

BRIDGE:  Everybody sing hallelujah

Together, you and me,

And all creation sing hallelujah, hallelujah

CHORUS

CHORUS

LIVING WATER

1. Water in air is called vapor

Water in air is called steam

Vapor and steam keep the rainforest healthy

Water in air helps us breathe

CHORUS:  

Water is life to the living

Water is life to our souls

Every glacier,and river and sea

Reminds me of God’s love for me

2. Freshwater flows in the rivers

Saltwater fills up the seas

Both kinds of water keep creatures alive

So let’s keep all water clean

3. Frozen water is ice

Frozen water is snow falling down

Frozen water is good for creation

Ice keeps the sea levels down

4. Jesus calls himself water

Living water is life to our souls

Every glacier, and river and sea

Reminds me of God’s love for me

CHORUS

GOD’S GREEN EARTH

The Bible says that God made the world.

The earth and the sky and the water,

And God gave  people the special task

Of helping to care for creation.

So let’s be good to the earth and to all things that grow.

Let’s help keep air and water clean.

Let’s be kind to all creatures, and as humans, find

Our place in God’s balance of things.

Let’s live as though we know our place on earth,

Our place on God’s green earth.

Let’s live as though we know our place on earth,

Our place on God’s green earth.

Our place on God’s green earth.

ONE FOR YOU AND ONE FOR ME

One for you and one for me,

Sharing is God’s way you see

When we all have what we need,

God will be so happy!

God will be so happy!

One for you and one for me,

Sharing is God’s way you see

When we all have what we need,

God will be so happy!

God will be so happy!

Sometimes it’s hard to share,

when  I‘m the one who has to give.

But that’s the way of God,

And that’s the way I want to live!

One for you and one for me,

Sharing is God’s way you see

When we all have what we need,

God will be so happy!

God will be so happy!
