"I want to know" - free MP3 download for September 2010
Posted by Maynard on Wednesday, September 1 2010
One of my favourite bible passages, in a bouncy song!
Paul writes in Phillipians 3:10-11,
 "I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead." (NIV)
AND: he's just said that everything else is RUBBISH, in comparison to knowing Jesus!
So that's what we sing about in this song. Kids love it - and you can get it free this month. Enjoy!

New Song: God has a Plan!
Posted by Maynard on Wednesday, August 25 2010
This is fresh from our Summer Holiday Club 2010, and it's a "Bible-Overview Meets John 3:16" song!
Have a listen NOW on the Jukebox - "God has a Plan Song"
The idea behind the Song is the Bible's teaching about the Kingdom of God as: "God's People in God's Place under God's Rule and Blessing" - something you can trace from Genesis to Revelation.
You can get the sheet music from the Store (for free), and you can also download MP3 files from there - full track and backing track versions.

"Go, Let's Go!" - July's Free MP3 Download
Posted by Maynard on Monday, July 5 2010
"Go Let's Go" - round the Mediterranean! Sing about the amazing journeys Paul made to share the Good News of Jesus with people - from Antioch all the way to Rome. Shipwrecked, beaten, stoned and more...
 It's a great theme for a Bible Club, whether you're doing a week on Paul or the book of Acts at a Holiday Club or VBS, or a series at your weekly Kid's Club.
This month (July 2010) the MP3 backing track is our free download - you can get it here:

Themed songs...
Posted by Maynard on Friday, May 21 2010
If you're involved in a (Northern Hemisphere) Summer Club of some kind, you might need some inspiration in your planning...
It won't surprise you to hear that most of the songs on the Jukebox were written for our summer club here - and some of them have four verses to match four themes...
Here's a list of the themed songs, in case you need that inspiration:

Kid's song for Mothers Day
Posted by Maynard on Monday, May 3 2010
Looking for a song for children to sing on Mother's Day?
Don't panic - we've got a great tune that's all about love! Not just gushy soppy love though - real love that lasts.
It's called "It's love", and it's based on that great passage 1 Corinthians 13.
Listen to it on the jukebox - click here.
Download the track from the store - click here.
Note to UK readers - Mother's Day in USA is on May 9th :)

April's Free Download - Galilee!
Posted by Maynard on Thursday, April 8 2010
"Galilee!" is a song all about what happens at the seaside... the sea of Galilee.
 That's where Jesus did so many great things, that show us who he is, and how fantastic he is! This song features four episodes from Jesus' life, and it's especially good if you happen to be doing a Summer Holiday Club, Backyard Bible Club, Beach Mission, VBS etc.
The four episodes are: - The Calling of the Disciples - Mark 1:14-20;
- Jesus' Authority to teach - Mark 4:1-9;
- Jairus' Daughter - Mark 5:35-41;
- Jesus walking on water - Mark 6:45-51
You can listen on the jukebox, get the PDF sheet music for free, and download the MP3 of the full track for free.

Fifty Three Verse Six
Posted by Maynard on Wednesday, February 3 2010
... it's a verse we need to hear!
... and it's a NEW SONG on the website today!
This song has been 'brewing' for six months now - I wrote it on holiday in France, inspired by Isaiah 53:6, and a pop song about a boy who doesn't do any washing up...(!!!)
It's very up-beat, which might surprise you for Isaiah 53:6, but I figure that (a) it's GREAT NEWS, and (b) we want to REMEMBER this bible verse, so... let's dance!
Anyway - it's a good song for Easter, or any other time of year. The kids will love it, and I don't think you'll get it out of your head for a while...
You can listen on the jukebox, click here.
You can buy the complete track (and not have that annoying "You're listening to MGBT..." bit in it!), or backing track etc. Sheet music is free - click the button on the jukebox! - or go straight to the store.
Enjoy!

Double Semi-Finalist in the 2009 UK Songwriting Contest!
Posted by Maynard on Thursday, September 10 2009
Great News from the 2009 UK Songwriting Competition: I entered "Good Friday" in the "Faith" Category, and "King Seekers" in the "Open" Category (I wasn't sure which category to enter, since these are kids songs...) and got to the Semi-Finals in both categories!
  Both songs scored 7: "A score of 6 or 7 indicates that the song made the semi finals panels and is one of the stronger songs in the contest. All these semi finalist songs are considered by the selection panels for the finals and a score of 7 indicates that the song was a borderline finalist and almost made it through to the finals."
I'm very grateful to God for this song-writing thing - I love writing the songs, and kids enjoy singing them - and because they're all about Jesus and living for him: that's great!
Go to the Jukebox NOW to listen to the songs!!!
