The Light of the World is Near You: A 23 Minute "Set" of Verses and Songs

Hello all! This is a collection of songs that our children at Zion and our Zion Sing Club will sing this year. It is almost 25 minutes of music and bible readings meant to help children learn new Christmas songs and focus on Luke 2, John 1 and Isaiah 9 in large sections. The songs are quite different from what you may normally hear in your Christmas carol play-lists! Consider it a welcomed "step out of the box" for your older children and a neat exposure to something different for your younger ones. I speak the memory verses with my piano playing underneath so your children can hear the Scripture again and again. It's my prayer that the piano part will help "text paint" the words! Charles Wesley "Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus" is featured along with Martin Luther's Hymn "From Heaven Above to Earth I Come-" the Reformation's first Christmas pageant hymn! This hymn is hidden in the song "Welcome to Earth," which is a re-written melody by Steven Springborn (a friend of mine!) put with the hymn "Joy to the World." My Christmas hymn "Isaiah Foretold" is also in the 23 minute "set' as my version of the Lord's Prayer and a Robert Lau "Starlight, Starbright" which interlaces with "Away in a Manger." Patreon is such a wonderful place to post these sorts of things- resources for my home church as well as for you! These pieces are woven into the Children's Christmas Service I wrote entitled "The Light of the World Is Near You." God's blessings as you prepare for His coming! Cara

[PREVIEW] How Beautiful on the Mountaintop

This song is based on the famous passage from Isaiah 52, How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” I wrote it when my baby boy was 4 weeks old and my husband planned a trip to the Asheville, North Carolina area. I hadn't felt fresh air like that in months and the views of the beautiful blue mountains were breath-taking. Years of memorization of Bible passages served me well, and this passage came to mind! I thank God for those in the past who carried the good news on beautiful feet to me. In the church year, this could fit in three different areas. 1. At the end of the pentecost season at the beginning of traditional academic years, thanking God for Christian education and parents and teachers who bring the good news. 2. At the beginning of Advent. Early December brings stories of angels bringing the news to Zechariah, Elizabeth, Mary, and Joseph, the shepherds that the Savior will be born. 3. During Epiphany, when we focus on John the Baptist preparing the way for the Lord, pointing to him to say the Gospel in this one sentence, "Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." How beautiful are the feet of the ordinary people God has placed in our lives to bring us the Gospel: the pure WORD made flesh, the promises he embodies, and the peace that is ours in our Savior. The PDF of this song will be attached shortly! In the meantime enjoy the song!

[PREVIEW] I Am a Tree

Included in this post is an MP3 and a PDF of a simple movement song that will have the kids jumping and wiggling in no time. Kids in my music classes liked crouching down low like a seed hiding in the soil. They wave their arms like branches and pretend to grow, and think- how am I like a tree- where are my branches and trunk? Its such a simple but imaginative song I hope you enjoy with your kids! The PDF is uke-friendly and piano friendly!

[PREVIEW] My Ribbon is a Wave in the Sea

Who doesn't love a good ribbon song? Children love to watch their ribbon wiggle fast and slow and they will also need to listen to the position of the ribbon. Where are waves? Where are clouds? Corresponding actions will make this a great directional- learning song. "My Ribbon is a wave in the sea. Up high its a cloud above me. I turn it to the side, I'm a carnival ride. I can wave so happily." See the attached PDF for chords and accompaniment!

[PREVIEW] Roll Like the Sea

This is a early childhood movement song that challenges the child to listen and respond in a meaningful way. Each phrase the child is to make up a new movement for... the sea... a puppy...a tree...wheat in the field. How do those things move? Its so multi-directional that the refrain just makes us laugh... "Anyway you move, just move!" Have fun watching your sweet kids move their bodies to music and just have fun...

[PREVIEW] Now Rest Beneath Night's Shadow

Some of my favorite hymns are written by a pastor born in 1607 Germany: Johann Gerhardt. His ministry was during the 30 Years War in Europe and he experienced a mass amount of death and loss in his lifetime, sometimes conducting several funerals in one day. The Lord gave him a beautiful faith to cling not to what his eyes saw, but to what his faith knew. His prayers are mine in these hymns and I'm humbled to have such beautiful words with which to approach God's throne of Grace. The original melody, however, was from a gentleman who probably wrote it before the year 1500- its an old tune! I by no means think my melody is better, but I did put this hymn to a new melody. The purpose was to take these meditative words and make them lyrical and lilting for the rocking chair or by the bedside, rather than a tune suited for congregational singing. I hope you enjoy this lullaby! I recorded this on uke, but I do prefer to play it on piano! I'll make sure to record that as well.

I Thank you, Heavenly Father

"I thank you, my heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, your dear Son, that you have graciously kept me this day. Forgive me all my sins and graciously keep me this night. Into your hands I commend my body, my soul and all things. Let your holy angel be with me, that the evil foe may have no power over me. Amen." -Martin Luther This hymn is a paraphrase of the prayer above. Its a beautiful reminder of what is truly important in the life of the Christian: forgiveness of sins and freedom in our Savior, Jesus. We acknowledge in this hymn that God is our refuge and in Him we are truly safe from all harm of body or soul. "I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you, o Lord, make me dwell in safety." Psalm 4 This melody is one of the sweetest melodies I've ever sung. I'm smitten with it. I hope this can become something to stick with you and comfort you and your children before bedtime. Music by: Hal Hopson, text paraphrased from Luther's prayer by Katherine Dubke, b. 1991 Improvised and sung by Caralyn Wrobel and Charlotte Wrobel
