I mentioned in my previous post
that I would be sharing videos from
our church's All Youth Service in a series of posts.
Below are three additional videos from that wonderful evening.

The children's choir singing The Butterfly Song...
If I Were a Butterfly
If I were a butterfly,
I'd 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 makin' me me.
'Cause You gave me a heart, You gave me a smile,
You gave me Jesus and You made me Your child.
And I just thank You, Father, for makin' me me.
If I were an elephant,
I'd thank you, Lord, for raisin' my trunk.
And if I were a kangaroo,
You know I'd hop right up to You.
And if I were a fuzzy, wuzzy bear,
I'd thank You, Lord, for my fuzzy, wuzzy hair,
But I just thank You, Father, for makin' me me.
'Cause You gave me a heart, You gave me a smile,
You gave me Jesus and You made me Your child.
And I just thank You, Father, for makin' me me.
If I were a squiggly, 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 fine throat.
And if I were an octopus,
I'd thank You, Lord, for my good looks,
But I just thank You, Father, for makin' me me.
'Cause You gave me a heart, You gave me a smile,
You gave me Jesus and You made me Your child.
And I just thank You, Father, for makin' me me.
A youth quartet singing Send the Light
(our son on the left) ;o)
Send the Light
There's a call comes ringing o'er the restless wave,
"Send the light! Send the light!"
There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save,
Send the light! Send the light!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forevermore.
We have heard the Macedonian call today,
"Send the light! Send the light!"
And a golden off'ring at the cross we lay,
Send the light! Send the light!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forevermore.
Let us pray that grace may ev'rywhere abound;
Send the light! Send the light!
And a Christ-like spirit ev'rywhere be found,
Send the light! Send the light!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forevermore.
Let us not grow weary in the work of love,
Send the light! Send the light!
Let us gather jewels for a crown above,
Send the light! Send the light!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light! the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forevermore.
A youth duet singing Because of Who You Are
(our eldest on the right) ;o)
Because of Who You Are
You spoke the words and all the worlds came into order,
You waved Your hand and planets filled celestial skies.
You placed the woman and the man inside the garden,
and though they fell, they found compassion in Your eyes.
Oh Lord, I stand in awe of the wonder of Your deeds,
Yet a greater wonder brings me to my knees.
Lord, I praise You because of Who You are,
not because of all the mighty things You've done.
Lord, I worship You because of Who You are.
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise,
Because of Who You are.
One holy night You brought Your promise from a virgin,
And promise grew as He revealed to us Your heart.
Enduring love displayed throughout His crucifixion,
And in the dark You tore the grave and death apart.
Oh Lord, I stand in awe of the wonder of Your deeds,
Yet a greater wonder brings me to my knees.
Lord, I praise You because of Who You are,
not because of all the mighty things You've done.
Lord, I worship You because of Who You are.
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise...
Lord, I praise You because of Who You are,
not because of all the mighty things You've done.
Lord, I worship You because of Who You are.
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise,
Because of Who You are.

On The Butterfly Song, the little man-angel is tooooooo precious. I just want to scoop him up and squeeze him.
We've tried to get our teens to sing this. The girls are all into to and the boys are the complete opposite.
It was all such a blessing!
