Scripture Songs with Kids: “Choose ye this day” with Joshua 24:15

Help your children understand our ability to choose to serve the Lord using Joshua 24:15:

"Choose you this day whom ye will serve; . . . but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

For two decades, our family has been setting key scripture texts to original melodies designed to bring out the texts’ meaning and impact. We have written over 300 such songs, and we can attest to the spiritual power they have brought to our lives. Now we are making them available worldwide for use by individuals, parents, and teachers.

The key to learning these scripture songs is repetition. We have found that the following formula generally works: Listen to the same song three times a day, for three different days. For a couple of those times, read along in the text. As the melody begins to become familiar, do your best to sing along.

After learning a scripture song, try to sing it often enough that you retain it (every couple weeks or so should do the trick). Before long, you will find the word of God popping into your head as you go about your day!
