The Letter "X"

We had family time but did not write the post right away. Sorry for the delay.

"Exalt the name of the LORD!" Isaiah 24:15

Because of our plan for this one we did not start with dancing. We started with verse memorization. Then we discussed the meaning of the verse. God has many names. These names teach us about His character. We exalt His name by speaking truth about Him and by trusting in His character. In order to learn some of His names we went on to YouTube and selected some songs that included names of the LORD. You can enjoy them if you would like.






The final song had no YouTube clip. The Lyrics are simple and each time they are repeated the song speeds up a little. Kids love it and mom and dad get tired out. :) It's called King of Kings, I think. Here are the lyrics:

King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Glory, Hallelujah
King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Glory, Hallelujah
Jesus, Prince of Peace, Glory, Hallelujah
Jesus, Prince of Peace, Glory, Hallelujah

As we went through each song, we asked the kids to see if they could find the names of God in the song. Then we briefly discussed the meaning of the name. It was great to hear from their little minds the truth about our great God! He was exalted!
