And my song shall ever be
How marvelous, how wonderful
Is my Savior’s love for me

2 Quick Reminders for this week:

  1. For those with instrumentalists, make sure your child is turning in his/her practice card each week and (especially for 4th-6th grade) attending music class each time with instrument and music in hand.
  2. For all students, you can check music grades at any time using the PASS system. I update every time a new grade is entered.

The God Of Abraham Praise

Who reigns enthroned above
Ancient of everlasting days
And God of love
Jehovah, great I AM,
By earth and heaven confessed
I bow and bless the sacred name,
Forever blessed

And Him my only portion make
My shield and tower

January Hymn Of The Month


I Sing The Mighty Power Of God



verse 1
I sing the mighty power of God
That made the mountains rise
That spread the flowing seas abroad
And built the lofty skies
I sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day
The moon shines full at His command
And all the stars obey


verse 3
There’s not a plant or flower below
But makes Thy glories known
And clouds arise and tempests blow
By order from Thy throne
While all that borrows life from Thee
Is ever in Thy care
And everywhere that man can be
Thou, God, are present there



First grade is required to know verse 1.
Second and Third Grades are required to know verses 1 and 3


The test will be January 25th (1stgrade) and 26th (2nd & 3rd grades)
