Songs to Sing on the Bus |
One of the things we do on the bus when we pick up children to come to church is sing fun songs. Below are a few that we sing.
Oh, Soldier
This is an "echo song." The song leader sings the first part and everyone else repeats.
You say what I say!
You say what I say!
No, You say what I say!
No, You say what I say!
O-oh, Soldier
O-oh, Soldier
Grab your Bible, follow me
Grab your Bible, follow me
I'm in the Lord's infantry
I'm in the Lord's infantry
If I die in the combat zone
If I die in the combat zone
Box me up and ship me home
Box me up and ship me home
Lay my Bible on my chest
Lay my Bible on my chest
Tell my Lord I did my best
Tell my Lord I did my best
O-oh, Soldier
O-oh, Soldier
O-oh, Soldier
O-oh, Soldier
Hooray For Jesus
This is one of my favorites. Have the children stomp their feet as they sing this song.
Hooray for Jesus, Hooray for Jesus!
Someone in the crowd is shouting, (clap!)
"Hooray for Jesus!"
1! 2! 3! 4!
Who's the one you're rooting for?
Jesus, that's who!
bum, bum, bum
Hooray for Jesus, Hooray for Jesus!
Someone in the crowd is shouting (clap!)
"Hooray for Jesus!"
5! 6! 7! 8!
Who do we appreciate?
Jesus, that's who!
bum, bum, bum
Hooray for Jesus, Hooray for Jesus!
Someone in the crowd is shouting, (clap!)
"Hooray for Jesus!"
9! 10! 11! 12!
Who can save us all from Hell?
Jesus, that's who!
bum, bum, bum....
Jesus, that's who!
We are the Bus Kids
This is another echo song.
Everywhere we go
Everywhere we go
People oughta know
People oughta know
Who we are
Who we are
And where we come from
And where we come from
So we tell them.
So we tell them.
We are the bus kids
We are the bus kids
The mighty-mighty bus kids
The mighty-mighty bus kids
Church-going bus kids
Church-going bus kids
Bible-reading bus kids
Bible-reading bus kids
Everywhere we go
Everywhere we go
People oughta know
People oughta know
Who we are
Who we are
And where we come from
And where we come from
So we tell them.
So we tell them.
We are the bus kids!
We are the bus kids!
Pepsi Cola
This is a silly song that the kids enjoy. Warning: it will run in your head at the oddest times.
Pepsi Cola went to town,
Coca-Cola shot him down,
Dr. Pepper fixed him up,
Now we all drink 7-up
Knock-knock, rattle-rattle-rattle, honk, beep-beep
Knock-knock, rattle-rattle-rattle, honk, beep-beep
Knock-knock, rattle-rattle-rattle, honk, beep-beep
Knock-knock, rattle-rattle-rattle, honk, beep-beep
There are more verses, but I don't know them yet. The knock-knock lines go at the end of all the verses.
