Straight off - an apology: sorry if you think this song is a bit, well, unfair to Paul. Let me explain. We get hints in the New Testament that Paul may have looked somewhat unimpressive in person - 1 Corinthians 2:3f, 2 Corinthians 10:10 - and there's an apocryphal account which describes Paul as "a man of little stature..." (see the New Bible Dictionary article on Paul).

However - and it's a big HOWEVER - the message that Paul had: WOW! That was amazing.

So that's the angle this song takes - Paul himself, maybe not that cool, but WOW! the things that he said!

Have a listen on the Maynard's Groovy Bible Tunes Jukebox: "Paul Paul" - and get the downloads from the MGBT store.

"Go, let's go, round the Mediterranean!"

The Apostle Paul had some amazing adventures as he travelled around the Mediterranean area spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ. It's a great theme for a series in Sunday School, or a holiday club, and that's where this song comes from.

Originally written as the theme song for a "Paul" Summer Club, it has four verses describing Paul's journeys - from his conversion on the road to Damascus, through prison adventures with Silas, ending up in Rome, via shipwrecks and other dangers!

Here's how it goes: 

It's available as Sheet Music, MP3 downloads and on CDs from Maynard's Groovy Bible Tunes

Maybe your Bible story in Sunday School is a healing miracle, and you're really keen that the children understand: it's because of who Jesus is! It shows us he's the Son of God!

Remember Peter suddenly realising who Jesus is in Matthew 16 (like Mark 8)? "You are the Christ - the Son of the living God" (Mt 16:16) - that's what we're supposed to realise, when we've seen the miracles. Some did - Blind Bartimaeus understood, and called out to Jesus "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!".

"One Man Said" imagines what it must have been like to be healed by Jesus, and, like Blind Bartimaeus, realise exactly who Jesus really is. "One man said: 'He gave me sight when I was so blind, now I can see in the bright sunshine, who could this be with this power so good?' Gave him sight? SON OF GOD!"

There are 4 verses - three miracles, and one verse about our response. Actions / Motions are fairly easy to work out for this one!

Have a listen here: 

Or go to the Jukebox on MGBT to hear the whole song. Here's a link to the downloads - MP3 files and PDF sheet music.

"Jesus has Authority" - he's the boss, the one in charge, and you can see it through the miracles he did.

Where John focusses on "signs" (see Songs about Miracles #1), Mark in his Gospel shows us Jesus' Authority - and he's got real authority in bucket loads: over nature, sickness, sin, and even life and death.

The Sunday School Song "Jesus has Authority" looks at some of these miracles from Mark's and John's Gospels, and encourages us to see Jesus' authority, and so respond with faith in him as the "way, truth and life" (John 14:6).

There are verses about the wedding at Cana, the healing of the paralytic, Jairus' daughter, and the calming of the storm. It's a song that has a free rhythm, and works really well with solo guitar or piano, or just unaccompanied.

In John's Gospel the miracles are presented as seven "signs" - pointers to who Jesus really is. We're supposed to see the signs through John's testimony, and believe in Jesus as the Son of God (John 20:31)

That's a really helpful perspective in Sunday School, because the children might be wondering why Christians can't do miracles like Jesus' today. The obvious answer is: because we're not the Son of God! At the same time, it's vital that John gives us the evidence that Jesus IS the Son of God - otherwise, how would we know to believe?

The song "Seven Signs" takes us through the signs as they come up, and asks what they're all about - with the great answer: they're about Jesus being the Son of God!

You can listen to the full version on the Maynard's Groovy Bible Tunes website: Seven Signs - you can get downloads of Sheet Music and MP3 files there too.
