Eatin' Up the Word

Lyrics

My Bible is yummy
I gobble it up
Stories about Jesus--I can't get enough
Of the Psalms and the Proverbs, Epistles and more
Conocere' mas de mi Padre Senor.

Y canto

Chomp Chomp Chomp
I'm eatin' up the Word.
Chomp Chomp Chomp
Like a hungry little bird
Chomp Chomp Chomp
Like a mousey eatin' cheese
Leyendo de Dios me hace feliz!
Leyendo de Dios me hace feliz!

Translations:
Conocere....I will know more about my Father God
Y canto.....and I sing
Leyendo....Reading about God makes me happy.



I love the idea that kids can listen and learn something from it.It has always been hard to keep little ones focused especially if really young,so why not music? Music is life.It reminds me of Mariah Carey Christmas albums,not so much as in voice wise...just joy to the world so to speak!

Interesting combination of children and religious music. I liked the flute and the spoken part along with the multi languages. Very clever overall.

A energetic song with religious message. I like the sound effects and arrangement

This feels exactly what Ned Flanders and its sons would sing. I prefer Alice In Wonderland to the Holy Bible, but this Bible is Edible, so it satisfies the basic material needs of a human, at least. And the melody and the singing are fresh.
