The Giving Song
What can we give to our family?
Chocolates, Hats, Socks, Lollies or Cards
What can we give to our family?
Homemade Presents, Underwear, Books, or Toys
But it’s Jesus’ birthday and not our own
God gave His Son
Give praise to Him
The three wise men brought gifts to Jesus
Our Saviour God and King
What does God give to His family?
Love, joy, peace, patience, and kindness
What does God give to His family?
Goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control.
But it’s Jesus’ birthday and not our own
God gave His Son
Give praise to Him
The three wise men brought gifts to Jesus
Our Saviour God and King
What can we give to a loving God?
Give him our lives everyday
What can we give to a loving God?
Give Him our lives and worship Him evermore
‘Cause it’s Jesus’ birthday and not our own
God gave His Son
Give praise to Him
The three wise men brought gifts to Jesus
Our Saviour God and King
