Here is a Bible verse song for John 14:27 that I call "Do Not Be Afraid." It is a very sweet song with a lullaby feel. It beautifully describes the wonderful peace that Jesus wants to give each and every one of us.
My very first musical Bible program for children was called "The Fruit of the Spirit" and I wanted to include a Bible verse song for John 14:27 to showcase the fruit of peace.
John 14:27 says this: Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
This is definitely one of the most beautiful verses on peace. What a wonderful Savior we serve! And how blessed we are that we can trust in Him at all times an not be afraid.

Mark 12:30 encourages us to love God with all our hearts. Our hearts are the storehouse of all our feelings. Here is a fun Bible game for Mark 12:30 to help your preschoolers learn how to love and trust God with all the different feelings they have such as happiness, sadness and excitement.
In my preschool chapel program called "Loving God and Others," I get to teach the children about the wonderful Bible verse of Mark 12:30, which says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength."
Want to make your own game from scratch? Then follow the directions below.
What you need to play the Bible game for Mark 12:30:
For this game, I am giving you six short little stories about 6 different children. Each story shares a different emotion. The stories are written below.
When I present this game, I show the children 6 pictures of different children and number them 1 - 6. Each picture shows a child showing one of the 6 different emotions in the stories found below. You can gather 6 pictures and place them on a pocket chart or on a table so all the children can see them.
How to play the Bible game for Mark 12:30: Tell the children the following: There is a really great verse in the Bible that says you need to love God "with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength." Your heart and soul is where all of your feelings come from. Can someone tell a feeling that they felt today? (Wait for some responses.) Wow! Those are lots of different feelings. Feelings are a gift from God and He wants us to love Him with all our feelings and trust Him with all of our feelings.Let's play a game called "Which Feelings are They Feeling?" I am going to show you 6 different boys and girls. Let's see if you can guess which feeling they are feeling. (Show them each picture and let them guess the feeling. If they don't guess the correct feeling, make sure they know what the correct feeling is so that they will be able to match the children with the correct story.) After introducing each picture, begin reading each story and let the children decide who is feeling the feeling in the story. Each story will also reveal the name of each child. That's it! It's fun and easy and a great way to introduce Mark 12:30. 6 Feelings Stories

The Bible story of when Peter heals Tabitha is one of the greatest miracles in God's Word. I love coming up with creative ways to share the Bible and writing Bible story songs is a perfect way to teach God's stories. Follow along with the words of this song to teach your children that God is a miracle-working God!
I love the story of when Peter heals Tabitha. In fact, God used Peter to do more than heal Tabitha, God used Peter to bring Tabitha back to life! This wonderful story is told in Acts 9:36-41, which says:
36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and deeds which she did.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.
39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
41 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. (King James Version, In the Public Domain)
What a GREAT story! When Peter heals Tabitha, I'm sure there was much rejoicing of all around who witnessed the miracle.
You can help your children rejoice anew at this miracle by sharing the words below to the song I have written.
Here is a video showing a LIVE performance of me performing "Peter Heals Tabitha" at a preschool while using Steve Axtell's Magic Drawing Board:
Here are the words to the song "Peter Heals Tabitha"
Hello! My name is Tabitha, but in the Greek language my name is Dorcas and I love to sew.
SL: Really? I love to sew too! What kind of things do you sew?
T: I love to sew clothes
Sewing! Sewing! Needle and thread in hand.
I love sewing clothes for children, women and men.
I sew for those with no money to spare.
But because God's good to me they have clothes to wear.
SL: That's wonderful, Tabitha! God has given you an amazing talent that can help lots of people.
T: Oh, yes! Sewing is one of the greatest gifts God has given me. But do you want to know the greatest gift God gave to me?
SL: Of course! What is it?
T: My life.
One day when I was sewing I started to feel sick
I was very dizzy then fell down like a brick
My friends they took me to my bed and found that I was dead
They took me to the upstairs room and covered up my head.
SL: Tabitha, what did you do?
T: I couldn't do anything, dear. I assure you that I was quite dead. But I can tell you what I wish I had been doing.
Sewing! Sewing! Needle and thread in hand.
I love sewing clothes for children, women and men.
I sew for those with no money to spare.
But because God's good to me they have clothes to wear.
SL: Well, you obviously didn't stay dead! What happened to you?
Some friends had heard that Peter was in the town near by.
Two men were sent to Peter while the women stood and cried.
Peter was a friend of Jesus, the Lord he did obey
When he arrived my friends showed him all the clothes I'd made
They said she loved:
Sewing! Sewing! Needle and thread in hand.
She loved sewing clothes for children, women and men.
She sewed for those with no money to spare.
Because God was so good to her we had clothes to wear.
SL: What happened next?
Peter sent my friends out then on his knees he prayed
He said, "Tabitha, get up." And my body did obey.
I opened up my eyes to see Peter standing there
He took me by the hand. I was alive and I was well!
Now, I could get back to...
Sewing! Sewing! Needle and thread in hand.
I love sewing clothes for children, women and men.
I sew for those with no money to spare.
But because God's good to me they have clothes to wear.
SL: That is an amazing story, Tabitha!
T: Oh, yes it is! Even though Jesus had already risen and gone back to Heaven, Jesus heard Peter's prayer and gave me back my life. It was a miracle. And many people in my town of Joppa believed in Jesus because of the miracle He did in my life.
Well, I must be going now! I have more sewing to do! Goodbye, dear!

My Fruit of the Spirit song is one of the very first Bible verse songs I ever wrote and it is still one of my favorites. The kids love when I sing this song along with my fun Fruit of the Spirit boards and my bopper. Add these creative props to your own worship or teaching time in your classrooms or homes.
The Fruit of the Spirit song comes from Galatians 5:22-23, which says this: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness and self-control."
Learning the Fruit of the Spirit should be a goal for every one of us, especially for our children. Whether you are a parent or teacher, you can have lots of fun teaching these great Bible verses to your kids. And whatever version of a Fruit of the Spirit song you use, with a little help with some creative props, your children will have all 9 "fruits" memorized.
Prop #1: Fruit of the Spirit Boards When I sing my Fruit of the Spirit song, I use some boards that have all 9 of the fruits listed on 3 separate signs that look like this: I made my boards nice and strong so that they would last a long time. You can make your own boards by following my design above.
Prop #2: The Bopper When performing my Fruit of the Spirit song, I use one of my favorite props that I call a "Bopper." A bopper is simply a dowel rod with a sponge ball attached to the end of it. Here is a picture:
Prop #3: A Big Bible Of course, you can use a regular size Bible, but if you have one of those big "family" Bibles, it will be more engaging for the kids. One of my mottos in children's ministry is: The bigger the better. Here is a picture of a big "family" Bible:
How to share the Fruit of the Spirit Song
For this song, you will need to pick 4 kids to "be on stage" with you. You will give the first 3 kids one of the boards to hold. The fourth child will hold the Bible in their hands. You, the teacher, are in charge of the bopper. As you sing the song, you will lightly bop each of the sign holders on their heads, while standing behind them, indicating that they are to turn one full turn around as fast as they can. I created the boards so that each "fruit" in the song gets its own "bop."
When you sing the reference to the song, Galatians 5:22, you will then bop the child holding the Bible. This is the cue for all the class to get out of their seats and turn around along with the child holding the Bible. That's it! It's simple and very fun. Props can make a BIG difference in your children's ministry!

Singing a Bible song for Romans 3:23 will help your kids learn the truth about sin. This well-known verse says that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Use this Bible song to help your kids memorize this verse and hide it in their hearts for all their lives.
As Christians, we all know that sin is the most serious of topics. However, I actually had fun writing a Bible song for Romans 3:23.
The Wordless Book is a very simple tool for evangelism. It takes the five colors of Black or Dark, Red, White or Clean, Green and Yellow or Gold to explain the Gospel of Jesus Christ on a very elementary, yet effective, level. I have a Bible song that correlates with each color.
The dark color represents sin and Romans 3:23 is the perfect verse to teach about sin. I love Child Evangelism Fellowship's definition of sin: Sin is anything I think, say or do that displeases God.
Kids need to recognize that they are sinners and that Jesus gave His life to take the punishment for their sin. So, I wanted to write a song that was both upbeat and truthful.
How did I go about that? Well, I thought of good old Elvis Presley. When I picture Elvis, I think of him in his black leather jacket and slick backed black hair.
Before singing the song, I tell the children that Elvis was a pretty cool guy and a great singer, but he was also a sinner just like you and me. He did wrong things sometimes and the wrong things he did were sinful. I then proceed to bring out a pair of cool black sunglasses and then I teach them the moves to the song.

Try using this "Bible Story Order Song" for the Easter Story to help your children learn about the main events of this amazing historical event. Your kids will learn about "The Last Supper," "Jesus in the Garden," "Jesus on the Cross," "Jesus in the Tomb," "Jesus Rises from the Dead," and "Jesus Ascends to Heaven."
Last year, I wrote a chapel program simply called, "Let's Learn the Easter Story."
I wanted to write a song for the Easter story that would help the kids learn about 6 of its most important events. I decided that using my "Bible Story Order Song" format would be just the ticket to introduce all 6 occurrences. When I use my "Bible Story Order Song" format, I use a banner I created called my "Bible Story Order Banner." It's a banner that has 6 pockets which holds 6 pictures that showcase the events of any Bible story.
Here is a picture of my banner:
Next to the banner, I have a pocket chart that holds all 6 of the pictures.
Here is a picture of my pocket chart with all 6 pictures for the song for the Easter story:
While I sing the song such as the song for the Easter story, I am showing slides on my Power Point for the kids to match with the correct picture on the pocket chart.
I "pause" the song and let a child come up to the chart and find the picture that we just sang about. He then places the picture on my "Bible Story Order Banner" in the correct order.
Here is a picture of the "Bible Story Order Banner" completely full with all 6 pictures.
And here is a sample video showing the first part to the song of the Easter story:

I LOVE creating fun Sunday School ideas for preschoolers. Here is a sweet poem and game that you can play with your preschoolers to help them learn how God uses our family members to teach us about His love.
"Grandma's Breakfast Table" comes from my own childhood memories of a loving grandma who always did her best for us.
When I am writing Sunday School ideas for preschoolers, I will often go back to my own childhood and remember what it was like when I was growing up. Though times have changed, there are things that still remain the same such as the loving hands of a grandma.
My grandma was cherished by my sisters and I. Every Sunday morning we would all go over to her house and have a lavish breakfast made by her loving hands. Would I have loved her less if she just always gave us "Pop Tart?" I don't think so. But because she put so much time and effort into her breakfasts out of her great love for all of us, I do believe I love her more.
Last Mother's Day, I was able to create a new Bible Song Program for preschoolers called "Moms in the Bible." While the focus was on mothers, I thought it would be nice to include grandmothers. So, I wrote up a sweet poem based on my memories and turned the sharing of the poem into a fun Bible game.
I am providing you with the poem below in case you would like to include it in your own Sunday School ideas for preschoolers or during your chapel time or family devotions.
If you would like to purchase the downloadable files of the pictures and banner that I used for this idea, you can click on the following link to learn how to do so:

Sharing Bible songs for Valentine's Day is a GREAT way to share the love of Jesus with your children. Whether you are a parent, teacher or Christian children's worker, these fun Bible songs will help your kids grow in their love for the LORD!
Kids LOVE holidays! And so they should! God loves celebrations, too!
Sharing Bible songs for Valentine's Day provides lots of opportunity to teach your kids how much God loves them and why they should love God.
The Bible is full of verses that point to how much God loves us and it has been my privilege to write some Bible songs for Valentine's Day over the years that I want to introduce to you.
Valentine's Day Bible Song #1: He Loves Me
Did you know that God sings songs over us? Zephaniah 3:17 says this: "The Lord your God in your midst,The Mighty One, will save;He will rejoice over you with gladness,He will quiet you with His love,He will rejoice over you with singing.” (NKJV) I love this verse and I have wondered what God sounds like when He sings. "He Loves Me" introduces this truth in a fun and sweet way.
Watch this video showing a sample of the moves to this song:
Do your kids know that God wants them to love Him "with all of their heart, soul, mind and strength"? That's what Mark 12:30 says and this Bible verse should be a hallmark verse in the life of every Christian.
Watch this video showing a sample of the moves to this song:
Valentine's Day Bible Song #3: Clothe Yourselves with Love
If you are looking for a great Bible verse on love, look no further. Colossians 3:14 says this: "Clothe yourselves with love which binds us all together in perfect harmony." Your list of Bible songs for Valentine's Day should definitely include this great verse so that your kids can learn how important the love of God is in their lives.
