Themed songs...
If you're involved in a (Northern Hemisphere) Summer Club of some kind, you might need some inspiration in your planning...It won't surprise you to hear that most of the songs on the Jukebox were written for our summer club here - and some of them have four verses to match four themes...
Here's a list of the themed songs, in case you need that inspiration:
- "Galilee", and "Click! He's the image" to go with it - Jesus by the sea of Galilee
- "Go lets Go!" and "Paul Paul" - Paul's life and journeys
- "Rocky's Road", and "If I was Peter" for Peter and Jesus
- "Jesus has a Party" and "Party Party" and "Luke 19v10" for a "Parties..." theme

Fifty Three Verse Six
... it's a verse we need to hear!
... and it's a NEW SONG on the website today!
This song has been 'brewing' for six months now - I wrote it on holiday in France, inspired by Isaiah 53:6, and a pop song about a boy who doesn't do any washing up...(!!!)
It's very up-beat, which might surprise you for Isaiah 53:6, but I figure that (a) it's GREAT NEWS, and (b) we want to REMEMBER this bible verse, so... let's dance!
Anyway - it's a good song for Easter, or any other time of year. The kids will love it, and I don't think you'll get it out of your head for a while...
You can listen on the jukebox, click here.
You can buy the complete track (and not have that annoying "You're listening to MGBT..." bit in it!), or backing track etc. Sheet music is free - click the button on the jukebox! - or go straight to the store.
Enjoy!
Double Semi-Finalist in the 2009 UK Songwriting Contest!
Great News from the 2009 UK Songwriting Competition: I entered "Good Friday" in the "Faith" Category, and "King Seekers" in the "Open" Category (I wasn't sure which category to enter, since these are kids songs...) and got to the Semi-Finals in both categories!
Both songs scored 7: "A score of 6 or 7 indicates that the song made the semi finals panels and is one of the stronger songs in the contest. All these semi finalist songs are considered by the selection panels for the finals and a score of 7 indicates that the song was a borderline finalist and almost made it through to the finals."
I'm very grateful to God for this song-writing thing - I love writing the songs, and kids enjoy singing them - and because they're all about Jesus and living for him: that's great!
Go to the Jukebox NOW to listen to the songs!!!
"It's Love!" - New Song, 1 Corinthians 13
Hope you had a great Valentine's day!
Here's a new song so that you can sing about love - the kind of love that Jesus shows us, the love that the apostle Paul speaks about in 1 Corinthians 13.
It's on the Jukebox, with free PDF sheet music, and also in the store (as an MP3 download) - hope you like it!
Party Party! - New Song
This is a bouncy kind-of song, about the parties that Jesus went to, and that party he invites us to!
Check them out in Luke's Gospel:Luke 2:8-20; 19:1-10; 7:36-50; 14:15-24
That's the order they appear in the song.
You can use this song as an every-day Sunday School song, or, as the theme song to a VBS or Holiday Club, or a 4-week series at a midweek club or something.
Have a listen now - on the Jukebox. You can get the sheet music there too.
Seek and Save the Lost - Luke 19v10
New today - on the website anyway! This was a great favourite at our holiday club in 2007, and I've only just got round to getting the recording sorted out. Oops - sorry!
Never mind - better late than never.
Luke 19v10 is a great verse about Jesus - what did he come to do? Seek and save the lost! Don't forget it - because that includes you and me :D
Enjoy the song - it's a rappy kind of memory-verse thing - it's on the Jukebox (with PDF sheet music for free) and available as a download package (MP3) in the Store
