"Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD." ( Psalm 150:6 )

Ramesh paul Kamalendran

(based on Psalms 40:1-11)

For your help lord I have waited so long,
The you heard my cry like a beautiful song.
He pulled me out of the deep dark hole,
He saved me, made me secure and made my heart whole.
Lord I will sing a song of melody,
When they hear this, they will join in harmony.
Wisdom is to the one who trusts in the lord,
Foolish are the ones, who turn against him with a sword.
There is none like you, for your love is eternal,
And as we speak your goodness is growing in numbers.
Lord you don’t want luxury like money,
You don’t want sacrifices on an altar like bunnies.
Or you don’t want food for a feast like bears,
But you have given us only ears to hear.
I may not be in the right mood lord,
But in every situation lord your word is my daily food.
In meetings I don’t stay in silence, I tell about your love,
I tell how loving, gentle and faithful you’re just like dove.
I know that your mercy has no ending,
And that in me love and loyalty is just beginning.

(Adam & Eve, Genesis chapter 1 & 2)

God made the universe
God made the universe
He saw that it was good, Amen
God made the universe

Then God created man
Then God created man
He made Adam in His likeness
Yes God created man

God made the woman Eve
God made the woman Eve
He took a rib from Adam’s side
God made the woman Eve

God placed them in Eden
God placed them in Eden
He said all this is yours for good
God placed them in Eden

But please don’t touch the tree
But please don’t touch the tree
Just please don’t eat that fruit you see
Oh, please don’t touch that tree

A serpent slithered in
A serpent slithered in
He talked to Eve about the fruit
A serpent slithered in

Eve ate forbidden fruit
Eve ate forbidden fruit
She shared the fruit with her husband
They ate forbidden fruit

God was very sad
God was very sad
He told them they would have to leave
Oh, God was very sad.

And that’s how things went wrong
And that’s how things went wrong
Oh that is why life became so hard
Yes, that’s how things went wrong.

 

Creation of World

(Genesis chapter 1)

Day one brought heaven earth and light.
It must have been so very bright!
Day two God made the clear blue sky.
A place for many birds to fly.
Day three brought land apart from seas.
With all the plants grass and trees.
Day four shone forth moon, stars and sun.
The work of God was not yet done.
Day five we see the fish and birds.
God did all of this with just His words.
Day six God formed all beasts and man
To finish His creation plan.
Day seven was especially blessed,
A day for worship and for rest.

 

Ten Commandments

No other gods. No idols.
No lust. No false blame.
Don't murder steal or covet.
Don't misuse Gods name.
Keep the Sabbath holy.
That's nine down one to go.
Honour mom and pop.
That's ten, you are good to go.

 

Twinkle twinkle little star

Twinkle twinkle little star,

how I wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high,

like a diamond in the night.

Twinkle twinkle little star,

how I wonder what you are.

 

more to come...
