Charlie the singing duck is a new acquisition, and has his ups and ‘downs.’

He sings three tunes, which can be set to these new words below. However you’re going to have to be careful that the songs are set at the right place, in Charlie's programme, in the correct order; also you won’t be able to repeat a song immediately after teaching it to the children, you’ll have to run past the other two first.

 

However, the children will be fascinated that a duck can actually sing these tunes, but you will have to invite the children to help him sing the words, as they’re not very clear and Charlie wants to learn all three of them one after the other!

 

To the tune Old McDonald’s farm:

2 Corinthians 8. 13

 

There are those who stand and stare,

Never ever share.

They think the world was made for them

Hear them everywhere:-

With a want, want  here and a want, want there

Here a want, there a want,

Everywhere a want, want,

We must never be like them,

We were meant to share.

 

 

To the tune Frere Jacques

Philippians 4.6

 

Don’t be worried, (x2)

God is here (x2)

He is right beside us (x2)

Have no fear (x2)

 

 

To the tune London Bridge:-

1 Peter 2. 9

 

God has chosen us himself,

To praise his name,

Lead us on…

Out of darkness into light.

His own people.
