1. I'm not going to e-mail you! Just give me my ten points, mate!\n\n2. Here is an old hymn with a similar beginnining.\n\n"Dear Shepherd of Thy People, Hear"\nWords: John Newton, Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779). \nMusic: "Somerset," William Henry Hewlett (1837-1940) \n\nDear Shepherd of Thy people, hear;\nThy presence now display;\nAs Thou hast given a place for prayer,\nSo give us hearts to pray.\n\nO Lord, our languid souls inspire,\nFor here, we trust, thou art!\nSend down a coal of heav'nly fire,\nTo warm each waiting heart.\n\nShow us some token of Thy love,\nOur fainting hope to raise;\nAnd pour Thy blessings from above,\nThat we may render praise.\n\nWithin these walls let holy peace\nAnd love and concord dwell;\nHere give the troubled conscience ease,\nThe wounded spirit heal.\n\nThe feeling heart, the melting eye,\nThe humble mind bestow;\nAnd shine upon us from on high,\nTo make our graces grow!\n\nMay we in faith receive Thy Word,\nIn faith present our prayers;\nAnd, in the presence of our Lord,\nUnbosom all our cares.\n\nAnd may the Gospel's joyful sound\nEnforced by mighty grace,\nAwaken many sinners round,\nTo come and fill the place.\nhttp://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/d/e/dearshep.htm\nhttp://www.blueletterbible.org/hymns/htm_d_e_dearshep.html\n\n 3. All it took was a simple internet search using part of your own question (details below).

Hi, I'm thinking back to my Sunday school days and the one I remember is to the tune of "Jesus Loves Me" and it goes:\n\nJesus called them one by one\nPeter, Andrew, James and John\nNext came Phillip, Thomas too, Matthew, and Bartholomew\n\nChorus:\nYes Jesus called them\nYes Jesus called them\nYes Jesus called them\nAnd they all followed him\n\nJames the one they called the less, \nSimon, also Thaddeus\nThe twelth apostle Judas made\nJesus was by him betrayed\n\nChorus\n\nMatthias then took Judas place\nTo teach to men of every race...\n\nUnfortunately can't remember the very end.  Is that the song?

FOr years I have written songs for my class, and each of the other teachers either found songs, skits or poems to present. We don't have a cohesive plan, but we have an elder introduce each group. THis year and last I moved up several grades and am now teaching grade 5/6. So last yar I found a five minute skit, and this year I am writing one. This has been the format we have followed for as long as I can remember.\n\nas for finding a complete program online, I've never checked, but there has to be one available somewhere. Do a google search, and check your nearest Christian book store.

Hi Michael,\nI don't know if a phone number will be of any use any more.\nI met the Laray D. Taite once, a few weekends ago. I was walking to the corner market for a loaf of bread when I had to pass by a neighborhood church. I was somewhat acquainted with the structure as it was always mentioned in the newspaper's community section. Known as "The loft," folks would gather there on Thursday evenings for poetry readings. \nHowever, this day happened to be a Saturday afternoon and a pair of gentlemen greeted me as I walked by. They invited me inside to sample an hour of their presentation. Ok, I went inside and found myself to be a prospective new recruit for their brand of religion. \n\nMost of the pews were filled with hooded monks chanting a haunting rhythm. There were others who like me, were wearing their regular denims. The service began like most others that church-goers would be familiar with. A grand master of ceremonies led the group through some songs and gave a sermon. Near the end of the hour it was time for their ritual of "laying on of the hands." Some of the parishioners would come forward and ask for prayers for their ailments or for a sick grand mum who fell down in the tub. All the hooded dudes whose faces could not readily be seen would all place a hand on the person and their combined energies were presumed to have a strength and expedite a solution to the problem. \n\nOK now, there was another new guy in the pews who was watching eagerly. I recognized Laray D. Taite from a wanted poster viewed earlier at the post office. When he saw a chance, he approached the ring of conspirators and described how he was always moving around and never able to settle down. The hooded goons closed in upon him, all to make a physical connection. The master of ceremonies began a prayer, a dogmatic mix of logic and pure hocus-pocus. I immediately saw the effects of the procedure as the tension went out of Laray D. Taite's body. When the beseeching was near an end, the master asked, "Are the brothers ready?" \n\nA suspenseful few moments passed until he almost shouted, "NOW!" \n\nOn that cue, the brothers began to pummel their hapless victim. Continually delivering blows over head and to the solar plexus until Laray D. Taite was down on the floor getting stomped. After another minute, the grand Pooh-Bah decided the treatment administered was sufficient to induce a relaxing calm that would assuage the nervousness of Laray D. Taite for a long, long time. \n\nI can't say for certain if Laray D. Taite got the comeuppance he deserved as I had a loaf of bread to buy and some other errands to do that day. I hope for you Michael, that you do find a sense of closure to this difficult episode of life. \n\n-Kobb

Did you know that John 3:16 perfectly sums up the entire message of the Bible? http://tinyurl.com/ojljl\n\nIf I were to try and rewrite it, it would be imperfect.\n____________________\nYou sent me an email but I cannot reply as your email address has not been "confirmed".

http://www.cyberhymnal.org/ is one of the best. I didn't recognize the fragment you quoted, and I am a Catholic liturgical musician - so you might not all that easily find it. But good luck!
