Song
The Butterfly Song
VERSE 1
If I were a butterfly,
I thank you Lord for giving me wings.
And if I were a robin in a tree,
I’d thank you Lord that I could sing.
And if I were a fish in the sea,
I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle with glee,
But I just thank you Father for making me, me.
CHORUS
For you gave me a heart, and you gave me
a smile,
You gave me Jesus and you made me your
child,
And I just thank you father for making me,
me.
VERSE 2
If I were an elephant,
I thank you Lord by raising my trunk.
And if I were a kangaroo,
You know I’d hop right up to you.
And if I were an octopus,
I’d thank you Lord for my good looks,
But I just thank you Father for making me, me.
CHORUS
For you gave me a heart, and you gave me
a smile,
You gave me Jesus and you made me your
child,
And I just thank you father for making me,
me.
VERSE 3
If I were a wiggly worm,
I’d thank you Lord that I could squirm.
And if I were a billy goat,
I’d thank you Lord for my strong throat.
And if I were a fuzzy wuzzy bear,
I’d thank you Lord for my fuzzy wuzzy hair,
And I just thank you Father for making me, me.
CHORUS
For you gave me a heart, and you gave me
a smile,
You gave me Jesus and you made me your
child,
And I just thank you father for making me,
ME!

day.

Message – The Land
God created the land
Gen 1 – God looked over
everything he made; it was
so good, so very good!
Gen 2 – God formed Man out
of dirt from the ground.
God cursed the land
Gen 3 – The very ground is cursed
because of you.
The ground will sprout thorns and
weeds.
You started out as dirt, you’ll end
up dirt.
Promise
2 Chronicles – If my people, who
are called by my name, will
humble themselves and pray and
seek my face and turn from their
wicked ways, then I will hear from
heaven and will forgive their sin
and will heal their land.
• Humble
• Pray
• Seek God

always with us. Help us to
look after the land for you.

Hands
He’s got the whole wide world, in his hands,

He’s got the whole world in his hands.
He’s got everybody here, in his hands,
He’s got everybody here, in his hands,
He’s got everybody here, in his hands,
He’s got the whole world in his hands.
He’s got the tiny little baby, in his hands,
He’s got the tiny little baby, in his hands,
He’s got the tiny little baby, in his hands,
He’s got the whole world in his hands.

He’s got the whole world in his hands!

Song
The Great Southland
VERSE 1
This is our nation, this is our land.
This is our future, this is our hope.
A land of reaping, a land of harvest, this is
our land, this is our home.
CHORUS
This is the Great Southland,
Of the Holy Spirit,
A land of red dust plains,
And summer rains,
to the sunburnt land,
We will see a flood,
And to this Great Southland,
His spirit comes.
VERSE 2
This is our nation, this is our land
This land of plenty, this land of hope
The richest harvest is in her peoples
We see revival, His Spirit comes
CHORUS
This is the Great Southland,
Of the Holy Spirit,
A land of red dust plains,
And summer rains,
to the sunburnt land,
We will see a flood,
And to this Great Southland,
His spirit comes.
VERSE 3
This is our nation, this is our land
This lucky country, of dreams gone dry
And to these people, we see a harvest
And to this land, revival comes
CHORUS
This is the Great Southland,
Of the Holy Spirit,
A land of red dust plains,
And summer rains,
to the sunburnt land,
We will see a flood,
And to this Great Southland,
His spirit comes.
