Just look all around youJust step out your doorCreation surrounds youThe works of the Lord!Each beautiful flowerEach hand-painted roseOur God is the artistEach color He chose

It Couldn’t Just Have HappenedWords & music by Sandy Howell, Robert Sobo, Ron Hamilton

It’s crazy!To find in a science book That we’re mutations from some primordial

gook!It’s crazy! ’Cause the odds are clearFish don’t turn to zebras even in a billion yearsThere had to be a planThere are too many moving parts There had to be a planAnd a Builder Who could finish what He starts

It couldn’t just have happened There really is no chanceThere is a great CreatorNot some lucky circumstanceIt couldn’t just have happenedDon’t throw reason out the door!Order comes from order And chaos causes more and more chaosChaos causes chaosGod is the answer that you’re looking forGod is the answer that you’re looking for

It’s crazy!

How beauty is ev’rywhereAnd would you know it? We’ve got eyes to see that it’s thereIt’s crazy! How a redwood seed Holds all the information to become the tallest

treeThere had to be a planThere are too many moving parts There had to be a planAnd a Builder Who could finish what He starts

It couldn’t just have happened There really is no chanceThere is a great CreatorNot some lucky circumstanceIt couldn’t just have happenedDon’t throw reason out the door!Order comes from order And chaos causes more and more chaosChaos causes chaosGod is the answer that you’re looking forGod is the answer that you’re looking forThat you’re looking for God’s the answer!

tells us in His Book

It’s simple, simple, simple as thatGod made heaven and the earth—simple as

thatIt’s simple, simple, simple as thatThe Bible says it. That settles it—simple as that

Ev’rything has a reason, a purpose, and a planGod spoke the word, and it happenedThat’s how the world beganIn six days God made ev’rything

He made Adam; He made EveHis fingerprints are ev’rywhere, just look and

you will see

It’s simple, simple, simple as thatGod made heaven and the earth—simple as

thatIt’s simple, simple, simple as thatThe Bible says it. That settles it—simple as thatIt’s simple, simple, simple as thatGod made heaven and the earth—simple as

Admit, Believe, Forever ReceiveWords by David Yeager & Ron Hamilton; Music by Ron Hamilton

You want to know the love of Jesus deep down in your heart

You want to get to know Him, but you don’t know where to start

You’d like to live forever through the promise that He gave

You wonder, “What must I do to be saved?”

Admit, believe, and forever receiveAdmit, believe, and forever receiveAdmit you are a sinner; believe in Jesus ChristReceive Him as your Savior, and you’ll have

eternal lifeAdmit, believe, and forever receive

You feel so very guilty for the bad things you have done

You try to do the right thing, but you often do the wrong

Remember Jesus died for you to take away your sin

He rose again, and He’ll raise you up with Him

Admit, believe, and forever receiveAdmit, believe, and forever receiveAdmit you are a sinner; believe in Jesus ChristReceive Him as your Savior, and you’ll have

eternal lifeAdmit, believe, and forever receive

Right Side Up Turned Upside DownWords & music by Jim Snyder, Cathy Weber, Ron Hamilton

It all began in a paradiseIn a perfect garden was the Tree of LifeThere was a rule they could not breakThere was just one fruit they must not taste

Right side up turned upside downMan chose sin; God cursed the groundThen the Son of God came downIn the Cross our hope is found

It all began with a big fat lie“If you eat the forbidden fruit, you will not die”They thought one taste would make them wiseBut they lost their home in paradise

Right side up turned upside downMan chose sin; God cursed the groundThen the Son of God came downIn the Cross our hope is found

Sin brought sorrow, death, and shameGod’s perfect earth was not the sameThorns and poison ivy grewEarthquakes shook, and hurricanes blew

Right side up turned upside downMan chose sin; God cursed the groundThen the Son of God came downIn the Cross our hope is found (Repeat chorus.)

WoodpeckerWords & music by Buddy Davis

How much wood does a woodpecker peck when a woodpecker pecks on wood?

When a woodpecker pecks that woodpecker pecks as much wood as he should peck wood

God made the woodpecker on Day FiveWhen He finished He said, “It’s good!”How much wood does a woodpecker peck

when a woodpecker pecks on wood?

You’d think that a woodpecker’s head would split with a migraine when he eats

But God designed that woodpecker kind with a spring behind his beak

When he drills in a tree it amazes me that the bird doesn’t break his neck

So how much wood does a woodpecker peck when he goes

peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck



God made the woodpecker on Day FiveWhen He finished He said, “It’s good!”


That woodpecker sounds like a beating drum as he thumps against a tree

He blinks his eyes, and sawdust flies; he will never miss a beat

For God put a cushion in his head so his brain doesn’t turn to mush

Put sticky stuff on his cute little tongue so the bird can catch those bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs, bugs



God made the woodpecker on Day FiveWhen He finished He said, “It’s good!”How much wood does a woodpecker peck

when a woodpecker pecks on wood?How much wood does a woodpecker peck

when a woodpecker pecks on wood?Peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck,

peck, peck, peck, peck, peck, peck

Behemoth Is a DinosaurWords & music by Buddy Davis

Behemoth is a dinosaur—a dinosaur is he!He eats the grass like an ox; his tail’s like a

cedar treeHis bones are strong as bars of iron; he’s chief

in the ways of GodCould Behemoth be a dinosaur—a mighty sau-

ropod?

Let’s look at the Bible; let’s look in the book of Job

Just turn to chapter forty; in verse fifteen we’re told

About a mighty creature that Job must have known

In the jungle of the plants and trees, Behemoth made his home




ropod?

Some say that Behemoth is nothing more than this

An elephant or a hippo, but I don’t think it fitsbecause they do not have a tail like a cedar treeSo Behemoth seems a lot more like a dinosaur

to me




ropod?




ropod?Behemoth is a dinosaur—a dinosaur is he!

Bible GlassesWords by Cheryl Reid & Ron Hamilton; Music by Ron Hamilton

Sometimes you’re in a pickle, and you don’t know what to do

You wonder if the things you hear are false or true

May I suggest a remedy that always works for me

Just look at things the Bible way, and you will clearly see

Put on your Bible glasses, and wear them every day

You’ll have much sharper vision when you look at the world God’s way

The Word of God gives truth and light to ques-tions big and small

So put on your Bible glasses for the answers to them all

Your friends may try to make you think that sin is not so bad

You’re tempted to do many things that make God sad

Remember that the Bible’s there to guide you ev’ry day

Just look for wisdom from God’s book to see the world God’s way

Put on your Bible glasses, and wear them every day

You’ll have much sharper vision when you look at the world God’s way

The Word of God gives truth and light to ques-tions big and small

So put on your Bible glasses for the answers to them all

Put on your Bible glassesPut on your Bible glassesPut on your Bible glasses for the answers to

them all
