The great adult song that expresses this message is by Mathhew West Titled Going thru the Motions(I think). Instead of restricting life we have to live. We also sang a great song at camp that you reminded me of when you discussed all of Gods creations. Sometimes the kids understand the simpleness of what God intended for us more than the adults that aren’t dancing anymore. Here it is:
The Hippopotamus Song
In the beginning God made the seas
And the forest filled with trees
God made the mountains up so high
And above it all he made the sky
God’s fingerprints are everywhere
Just to show how much he cares
And in between he had some fun
He made a hippo that weighed a ton
Hip Hip Hippopotamus
Hip Hip Hooray God made all of us
The song by Matthew West is titles “The Motions”. Just wanted to set that straight and add that there is a passion inside of all of us that can only be released when we are confident enough to express it instead of going thru the motions. Wow! Can we all find that confidence of the hebrew people Steve or will we continue to go thru the motions? I hope we can all live to celebrate and show others who God really is!
