A Boy Named David
Only a boy named David, only a little sling. 
Only a boy named David, but he could play and sing. 
Only a boy named David, only a rippling brook, 
Only a boy named David, and five little stones he took... 

And one little stone went into the sling and the sling went round and round, 
And one little stone went into the sling and the sling went round and round, 
And round and round and round and round and round and round and round... 

And one little stone went up in the air, 
And the giant came tumbling down!

Ananias and Sapphira
Ananias and Sapphira 
got together to conspire 
a plot! To cheat! The Lord and get ahead. 
They knew God's power…didn't fear it… 
tried to cheat the Holy Spirit… 
went into the temple and 
they both dropped dead! 

Hey! 
God loves a cheerful giver, 
Give it all you got! 
He loves to hear you laughing 
When you're in a an awful spot... 
So when the odds are up against you 
And you cannot do a thing... 
Praise God! To praise Him is a glorious thing!

Zacchaeus
Zacchaeus was a wee little man, and a wee little man was he.
He climbed up in a sycamore tree, for the Lord he wanted to see.

And when the Savior passed that way, He looked up in the tree,
And he said, “Zacchaeus, you come down!
For I’m going to your house today, for I’m going to your house today.”
