David & the Psalms- Bible Songs for Kids

Psalms Bible Songs for Kids

Welcome to Bible songs for kids about the Psalms. Many of the Psalms in the Bible have been made into hymns and songs that you can use to teach kids at home, church, Bible class, and Sunday school. Some of these songs are to familiar kids’ tunes, but others are traditional hymns you probably remember from your hymn book growing up. If the song is marked, “traditional” and you’re not sure of the tune, you can probably find it on YouTube. Also, check out these songs about Young Boy David and King David.

To God Be the Glory

By Fanny Crosby, public domain

To God be the glory!
Great things He has done.
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son.
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life-gate that all may go in.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
Let the earth hear His voice.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
Let the people rejoice.


O come to the Father
Through Jesus the Son.
And give Him the glory,
Great things He has done.
