The Bible in a Boat

Posted by Hildra Tague Jul 24, 2009

If you enjoy singing with the grandkids try this one.

(This song can be used with Bible stories for family or church activities).

Words to The Bible in a Boat Song by Hildra Tague

To the tune of Row, Row, Row Your Boat

Chorus:

Row, Row, Row the books.

Gently down the years.

Tell us the stories of people past,

Fascinate our ears.

Verse 1:

Joseph had his coat

Very colorful.

Merrily, merrily down the years.

His story is wonderful.

Verse 2:

Moses, hid by Miriam,

Laying in the bush.

Grew up to live an important life,

Just like his mother's wish.

Verse 3:

Jonah and the whale,

What a scary tale!

Rejected God's wish, gulped down by a fish.

Straightened up but looked a bit pale.

Verse 4:

Noah built the ark,

Warned of the coming flood

Two by two and people few,

A rainbow shined through the mud.

(Children will enjoy singing the chorus which can start the song and be sung after each verse.)

Next you may even want to read Tacky the Penguin from the library and sing along with the silly songs in it. Then you might even throw a party complete with bubbles and songs!
