Children Song
Years back, I started composing songs for choirs and the Light Magazine... Lovers of music appreciate my work. The talent is being used here
Composer's Foreword
There is a proverb in Yoruba land that says, "the religion elders do not involve children in would go into extinction".
Jesus while on earth ensures that disciples don't disdain the children as it has been the saying of Yahweh to Prophet Moses that the children be taught the laws of Yahweh.
Jesus also states this because he knows "eggs will become cocks" later, and the old people will die. When this happens, he knows that it is the children who have been taught ways of God that will carry on the message to the uttermost parts of the globe. But in the case they failed to carry children along, there there would be major problem, which is extinction of the message of the cross.
I have put these simple words into songs for children of the Lord Jesus to sing along.
The tune used for the composition has been prerecorded on Youtube and the link shared here for all to benefit from.
Thank you.
Composed Song
Chorus
As a child oh Lord
I have fixed my gaze on you
Thou lover of children
You have bid all children come
Solo/Leader
When I was in the womb
Having no knowledge at all
It's been you all the way
Jehovah lover of children
Chorus
Leader
Even when I was feeding
From the breasts of my mother
You are tight there by my side
You didn't let the food choke me
Chorus
Leader
The angels you have assigned
To monitor all my steps
They never cease even for once
To look 'nto you my Father
Chorus
Leader
I can't pass through the world
Without your instructions Lord
Through thy word instruct me
And I 'll forever be yours
Chorus
Leader
Give me listening ears
Give me a receptive heart
To always yield to your
Your goodly counsels on earth
Chorus
Leader
I 'll forever oh Lord
Keep on looking at the Lord
Help thou me heav'nly Father
To always give my heart to you
Chorus
