David & Jonathan

Tune: Are You Sleeping?

I am Jonathan, I am Jonathan,

I love you, I love you!

Here’s my robe and bow,

Here’s my robe and bow,

I’ll be your friend, ever true.

Abigail

Tune: Are You Sleeping

Beautiful Abigail, Beautiful Abigail,

Loved the Lord, loved the Lord!

She showed love & wisdom,

She showed love & wisdom,

And followed his word,

And followed his word.

Foolish Nabal, foolish Nabal,

Mean and bad, mean and bad.

He was rich but worthless,

He was rich but worthless,

And made others mad,

And made others mad.

Good King David, Good King David,

Lost his temper!  Lost his temper!

When Abigail spoke wisely,

When Abigail spoke wisely,

He listened to her, He listened to her.

Abigail & Nabal

Tune: The Bear Went Over the Mountain

Abigail was discerning,

Abigail was beautiful,

Abigail was lovely,

But, Nabal was harsh & bad!

Yes, Nabal was harsh & bad!

He made David really mad!

So….

 David wanted to kill him,

Abigail went out to stop him!

She brought drinks & food to him!

She made David really glad!

She said, “Nabal’s a cad!

He’s a foolish & worthless lad!”

Oh, please accept my present

The Lord will make you glad”

So…

David didn’t kill Nabal,

But God struck down Nabal,

Then David married Abigail,

For the wisdom that she had!

The United Kingdom

Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb

The United Kingdom had 3 kings,

Had 3 kings, had 3 kings,

The United Kingdom had 3 kings,

Saul, David, Solomon.

Bathsheba & Uriah

Tune: Three Blind Mice

by Amanda Wilson

Bathsheba, Bathsheba,

Taking a bath, taking a bath,

David stayed home from the war that day,

He let his eyes look that way,

Then he stole her, then he stole her.

Uriah, Uriah,

Off to the war, off to the war

Then David sent word to kill his friend,

It was a sad and bitter end,

David sinned, David sinned.

God Forgives Me

Tune: Jesus Loves Me

My God loves me when I’m good,

When I do the things I should.

My God loves me when I’m bad,

But it makes Him very sad.

Sometimes I may disobey,

But God forgives me when I pray.

Repent means change the way I act,

Don’t go back and act like that.

Yes, God forgives me!

Yes, God forgives me!

Yes, God forgives me!

When I ask Him to.

I love others when they’re good,

When they do the things they should.

I love others when they’re bad,

I forgive and make God glad.

I forgive others,

I forgive others,

I forgive others,

When they’re so wrong to me.

Please, Please Forgive Me

Tune: O Where is My Hairbrush? (Veggie Tales)

By Amanda Wilson

Oh, please… please forgive me!

Oh, please… please forgive me!

Oh please, oh please,

Oh please, oh please,

Oh please!

Please forgive me!

My God… will forgive me!

My God…will forgive me!

God will, God will,

God will, God will,

God will…

Forgive me!

Mighty King

Tune: Mulberry Bush

David was a mighty king,

Mighty king, mighty king,

David was a mighty king,

He ruled the people well.

David was a friend of God,

Friend of God, friend of God,

David was a friend of God,

He ruled the people well.

David was kind to Jonathan’s son,

Jonathan’s son, Jonathan’s son,

David was kind to Jonathan’s son,

He ruled the people well.

Sing a Song of David

Tune: Sing a Song of Sixpence

Sing a song of David,

Israel’s greatest king.

First he was a shepherd,

And he liked to sing.

Then he killed Goliath,

With a stone and sling,

Didn’t that take bravery

By Israel’s greatest king?

David was a victor,

With his sling and sword,

He brought peace to Israel,

Everywhere he warred.

All the people praised him,

And he was adored,

Didn’t that take wisdom

By the man who loved the Lord?

He wrote many scriptures,

With a scroll and pen,

When he sinned, he asked

God to forgive, and then,

He wrote songs of praise for fellowship again,

Didn’t that take faithfulness

To have God for his friend?
