To have bought a copy of 'come and praise'...

[KindergartenKop]

...to expose my kids to the brilliant songs of 80s and 90s primary school assemblies.

Aibu?

🎵 Cross over the road, my friend 🎵

🎵The ink is black, the page is white.
Together we learn to read and write, to read and right 🎵

I particularly enjoyed the one about being cold and naked.

🎵WHEN A KNIGHT WON HIS SPURS IN THE STOR-IES OF OLD, HE WAS GENTLE AND BRAVE, HE WAS GALLANT AND BOOOOOLD🎵

Autumn days when the grass is jewelled...

God of concrete, God of steel,
God of piston and of wheel?

I particularly enjoyed the one about being cold and naked.

That is a good one.

🎵WERE YOU THERE? WERE YOU THERE?🎵

Colours of day was my favourite!
Number 55 possibly?!

OMG I forgot about these!

And the taste of apple pie.....

Just such good songs

Oh man Colours of Day! Autumn Days! How is it that I can remember the words to all of these but can’t remember how old I am?

I say this as a Catholic 4 years !!!!!!!!!!

We all thought it was so rude to have the line cold and naked, like the rudest thing we’d ever heard!

🎶 "Jet planes meeting in the air to be refuelled".🎶

(Definitely left me with a misconception about how likely I was to see that happen.)

Oh god I might have to buy it 🤣 . It will go nicely with my Catholic Hymns playlist on Spotify. My husband often looks bemused when he arrives home and I’m warbling ‘Do not be Afraid’ whilst mopping the floor.

It’s my friends sons confirmation next Saturday and we were discussing today how we are hoping for some good ‘Jesus Bangers’ .

Wonder what happened to the mop topped, open mouthed monochrome blue children on the cover?

We also used to sing Street of London a fair bit, which I think was actually like a pop song that was released?

Oooo did you buy no. 1 (blue) or no. 2 (green)??

Colours of day was my favourite!

Mine too!

I've got a copy! I almost feel inspired to go and bang out a few hymns on the piano (almost).

Said Jesus to Mary now what will you do with this ointment so rich and so rare?
I'll pour it all over the feet of the Lord and I'll wipe it away with my hair she said.
I'll wipe it away with my hair.

Many many verses this one had.

Loved loved loved 'Make me a channel of your peace' and 'Shalom, Shalom'.

Who out the colours in the rainbow ? Who put the salt into the sea ?
One about a hammer - I'd hammer in the morning, all over this land
Lord of the dance - dance then wherever you may be, I am the lord of the dance said he
Cross over the road my friend

We all NEED these t-shirts.
