Jesus DID and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

When Jesus was all grown up
He really did a lot of stuff
On top of high hills and in boats out at sea
Sat down by tables for supper or tea
But he also loved lots on a kind of tree
It’s 100% true and a super cool story

Jesus SAID and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

On a great big hill Jesus told a story
About two builders let’s call them Billy and Bernie
Billy being silly built his house on the sand
But Bernie the brains built on rock on the land
After the storm Billy was grumpy cos his house was in pieces all broken and lumpy
But when you listen and do what I say you’re like Bernie the builder who built the right way

Jesus DID and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

Jesus was by a lake with friends and people came to follow
It got late and bellies grumbled cos they had no food to swallow
So Jesus did a miracle five thousand mouths were fed
He did it with two smelly fish and just five loaves of bread

In a boat out at sea his mates had a big surprise
They saw Jesus walking there. They couldn’t believe their eyes!
He wasn’t in a boat and he wasn’t wearing skis
He was walking on the water and doing it with ease

Jesus SERVED and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

Jesus was at a table with friends like John and Pete
He made some soapy water and scrubbed their grubby feet
‘You can’t wash my feet’ says Pete, ’No way! Not happening! NNNNever!’
But Jesus did the messy jobs though he’s the most important ever

Jesus ATE and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

Jesus was having supper
He broke the bread in two
‘It’s a picture of my body and it’s broken now for you’
He also filled a cup with wine
‘Remember when I’m gone
‘That I bled because I loved you and paid for all your wrong’

Jesus PRAYED and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

Jesus was in the garden
He knew his time had come
‘I wish there was another way
But let my Father’s will be done’

Jesus DIED and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

Some didn’t like Jesus
He said he was God’s son
They thought he was telling fibs and telling them for fun
And though he was God’s Son they nailed him to a tree
Inbetween two robbers he died for you and me
He said that it is finished and then he closed his eyes
In case he was pretending they even stabbed his side

Jesus ROSE and Jesus loved
To show us how his Father loves

A woman was at a graveyard
A man asked her what was wrong
The lady sobbed and sniffled
‘Jesus’ body’s gone’
She thought he was a gardener
But there was no spade in view
But Jesus called her Mary
Then teacher she cries, ‘It’s you!’

So now Jesus is alive
There’s lots he wants to give
But most of all it’s life and love
So we can really live
