What are some good preschool age songs about God and Jesus?

Question

I teach music at a christian preschool and I am asked to prepare the classes for performances at Sunday church services. Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

Nothing like indoctrination at an impressionable stage, huh?

Answer 2

The B-I-B-L-E yes that's the book for me, I stand alone on the word of God the B-I-B-L-E (then shout very loud) - BIBLE

Email me if you need some help on the tune of this song

Answer 3

The B-I-B-L-E; Jesus Loves Even Me; He's Got the Whole World; I'm in the Lord's Army; Jesus Loves Me;

Jesus Loves the Little Children; Do Lord; Who Built the Ark;

Hallelu, Hallelu; Oh, How I Love Jesus

just to name a few

Answer 4

I used to love this song back in Church camp

"Father Abraham"

Father Abraham,

Had many son,

many sons had father abraham.

I am one of them

and so are you,

so lets just praise the lord,

Right Arm. (raise right arm)

Repeat song

then go, right arm, left arm.

then Right arm, left arm, right foot

Keep repeating with all the actions

Right arm, left arm, right foot, left foot...and any other movement you want to add

Answer 5

"His Banner over me is Love"

We sing this one with the little ones at our church. You can sign it fairly easy too and the kids picked up on it real fast. (in the 2-3 class)

Answer 6

I always loved the music of Christian artist Mary Rice Hopkins when I was working in a church-based preschool.  She has some great little songs that young children can sing, with a great message.  She performs all over the country (for free) and has an aide who puts signs (sign language) to the songs for little kids.  She is upbeat and fun, and the kids love the music.  Some of my favorites are:

-Fingerprints- this is a great one to make the parents cry

-Walk Like Jesus- very cute and upbeat

-Miracle- another one to make parents cry about how special their child is

-Hip, Hip, Hip, Hippopotamus

-Animal Alphabet- fun animal for every letter

-Little Bit of Love

-You are My Shepherd- very easy repetition song for 2-3 year olds

-Superman- all about how God loves you for you

You can also usually order her CDs through a local Bible Book Store as well.

She even has an album that is Sing through the year- so you can have a song for every season.  Also, there are great CDs for moms, too.  We used to use many of these songs in our preschool graduation ceremony, as well as just listening to them in the classroom.

Another great series is the Wee Sing tapes... the ones I have came in a set of 4, but I've seen them everywhere as individuals as well.  They are all the classic Christian songs like, He's got the whole world in his hands, Father Abraham, etc.  Here's a link to a CD from them from Target.com:
