If I were a robin in a tree, I’d be a right little bully.
If I were a fish in the sea, I’d .....um....what was it...um?
SO I just thank you father for making me, me.
For you gave me a heart and you gave me a smile,
You gave me Jesus and you made me your child
And I just thank you Father for making me, me.
If I were an elephant, I’d CHARGE!
If I were a kangaroo, .............BOING!
If I were an octopus, I’d probably end up in a tangly inky mess ( can't cope with two legs let alone 8!)
SO I just thank you Father for making me, me
For you gave me a heart and you gave me a smile
For you gave me a heart and you gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus and you made me your child
And I just thank you Father for making me, me
If I were a wiggly worm, I’d not be tricked into coming to the surface by a bird tapping on the grass - uh uh NO way!
If I were a fuzzy wuzzy bear, I’d be really embarassed, as bears are not generally overly fuzzy wuzzy, would you say?
If I were a crocodile, I’d be a streamline supoer predator related to dinosaurs.
SO I just thank you Father for making me, me
For you gave me a heart and you gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus and you made me your child
And I just thank you Father for making me, me.
Yeah!
PS I hadn't realised just how resourceful this blog would be when I cut and paste the words to customise. If you click on the coloured words, it'll take you to a little craft idea about that particular animal!

We sing this song in assembly quite a lot, and I recently had to reinforce the lyrics to my Year 2 class afterwards as every child (without exception) sings, 'You gave me Jesus and you gave me a child.'
Hi Katie! Yeah, kids are funny when they sing what they think is right - slightly worrying for yr 2 chindren though!One Christmas, one of my children had to learn a song with the catchy lyric '...to visit baby Jesus, the Shepherds came to Bethlehem', and it was vastly improved in my opinion by his slant on it, which was...'to visit Baby Jesus, and the shepherds came to rescue him'!
my favourite is the child who sang 'I've got brains' instead of 'My God reigns'
