Song

The Butterfly Song

VERSE 1

If I were a butterfly,I thank you Lord for giving me wings.

And if I were a robin in a tree,I’d thank you Lord that I could sing.

And if I were a fish in the sea,I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle with glee,But I just thank you Father for making me, me.

CHORUS

For you gave me a heart, and you gave me a smile,

You gave me Jesus and you made me your child,

And I just thank you father for making me, me.

VERSE 2

If I were an elephant,I thank you Lord by raising my trunk.

And if I were a kangaroo,You know I’d hop right up to you.

And if I were an octopus,I’d thank you Lord for my good looks,But I just thank you Father for making me, me.

CHORUS

For you gave me a heart, and you gave me a smile,

You gave me Jesus and you made me your child,

And I just thank you father for making me, me.

VERSE 3

If I were a wiggly worm,I’d thank you Lord that I could squirm.

And if I were a billy goat,I’d thank you Lord for my strong throat.

And if I were a fuzzy wuzzy bear,I’d thank you Lord for my fuzzy wuzzy hair,And I just thank you Father for making me, me. 

CHORUS

For you gave me a heart, and you gave me a smile,

You gave me Jesus and you made me your child,

And I just thank you father for making me, ME!

Message – The Land

God created the land

Gen 1 – God looked over everything he made; it was

so good, so very good!

Gen 2 – God formed Man out of dirt from the ground.

God cursed the land

Gen 3 – The very ground is cursed because of you.

The ground will sprout thorns and weeds.

You started out as dirt, you’ll end up dirt.

This is our future, this is our hope.

A land of reaping, a land of harvest, this is our land, this is our home.

This land of plenty, this land of hope

The richest harvest is in her peoples

We see revival, His Spirit comes

This lucky country, of dreams gone dry

And to these people, we see a harvest

And to this land, revival comes

CHORUS

This is the Great Southland,Of the Holy Spirit,A land of red dust plains,And summer rains,to the sunburnt land,We will see a flood,And to this Great Southland,His spirit comes.
