I have always found this a problem so I am now sharing songs that I have used with children providing you with
Visuals
(Powerpoint or Picture or details of how you can make one)
Words
(chords also available)
Recording
(mp3 or video to learn the song)
Then if you would like to download the visual of the song there will be a link provided to my creation, or I will direct you to where else you can find it.
This month I am taking the theme of
EASTER
I want to do an Easter song now in advance to give you time to prepare.
He's Alive
Although I first learned this song as part of adult worship I love to do this with the kids groups as they always enjoy clapping to the beat and they need to know that
Jesus is ALIVE!
My husband is a worship leader but also accompanies the children a lot on the guitar and he will go up the keys while playing this with the kids just as he would in church worship time.
This original visual was hand written on A1 card and then covered in clear sticky plastic to help protect it and it did a good job because that visual can still be used today if necessary.
Then more recently I redesigned it on Powerpoint to be projected and also to be printed out on A4 cards

WORDS
He's Alive, the stone's been rolled away
He's Alive, He's no longer where He lay
He's Alive, I can hear the angels say
Let all the earth rejoice He's Alive.

Notes:
I have found some versions of a song with this as a chorus except the words are very slightly different and we have always sung it to a different tempo as well.
I have also found the chorus part on it's own attributed to
Shawn Craig
1985 Above And Beyond Music
CCLI Song # 98767
I Hope you enjoy the song and this is a help to you.
