Come join in
singing, join in praising
00:00:02.53\00:00:06.13
Let's all praise the Lord
00:00:06.17\00:00:08.94
We'll sing out
loud our voices raising
00:00:08.97\00:00:12.74
Let's all praise the Lord
00:00:12.77\00:00:15.58
Halleluiah, halleluiah
00:00:15.61\00:00:22.18
We'll tell the
world how much we love Him
00:00:22.22\00:00:25.72
Let's all praise
00:00:25.75\00:00:27.32
Come on, let's
all praise the Lord
00:00:27.36\00:00:32.99
Hi, boys and girls.
00:00:33.03\00:00:34.36
How many of you have ever played
00:00:34.40\00:00:36.26
Follow the Leader?
00:00:36.30\00:00:37.73
Now the rules of
this game are very simple.
00:00:37.77\00:00:40.30
A leader is chosen and
placed at the head of the line
00:00:40.34\00:00:43.17
and everyone else
lines up behind the leader
00:00:43.20\00:00:45.77
and does exactly what he does.
00:00:45.81\00:00:48.01
He might jump over
rocks, or crawl under chairs,
00:00:48.04\00:00:50.75
or run through the puddles.
00:00:50.78\00:00:52.48
Although, follow the
leader is just a game,
00:00:52.51\00:00:55.15
we do follow
leaders in life as well.
00:00:55.18\00:00:57.69
There are leaders
in school, and church,
00:00:57.72\00:00:59.79
and on sports teams.
00:00:59.82\00:01:01.42
We have to learn
to make good choices
00:01:01.46\00:01:03.63
about which
leaders we will follow.
00:01:03.66\00:01:05.79
The only good leaders
are the ones that lead us
00:01:05.83\00:01:08.90
in the right directions.
00:01:08.93\00:01:11.47
When Jesus called out to
Peter, Andrew, James and John
00:01:11.50\00:01:14.54
and asked them to follow Him,
00:01:14.57\00:01:17.11
do you think they
made a good choice?
00:01:17.14\00:01:18.97
Well, of course, they did.
00:01:19.01\00:01:20.41
Because Jesus
is the best leader,
00:01:20.44\00:01:22.84
we could ever have.
00:01:22.88\00:01:24.48
And He's also
calling you to follow Him.
00:01:24.51\00:01:27.85
Without Jesus, we
would be lost in this world.
00:01:27.88\00:01:32.05
Listen now as Sam sings,
"I Need Thee Every Hour."
00:01:32.09\00:01:36.26
I need thee every hour
00:01:48.64\00:01:53.17
Most gracious Lord
00:01:53.21\00:01:57.45
No tender voice like thine
00:01:57.48\00:02:01.88
Can peace afford
00:02:01.92\00:02:06.49
I need thee
00:02:06.52\00:02:08.92
Oh, I need thee
00:02:08.96\00:02:11.96
Every hour I need thee
00:02:11.99\00:02:15.93
Oh, bless me now my savior
00:02:15.96\00:02:20.64
I come to thee
00:02:20.67\00:02:25.31
I need thee every hour
00:02:25.34\00:02:30.18
In joy or pain
00:02:30.21\00:02:34.45
Come quickly and abide
00:02:34.48\00:02:38.85
Or life is vain
00:02:38.89\00:02:43.06
I need thee Oh, I need thee
00:02:43.09\00:02:48.90
Every hour I need thee
00:02:48.93\00:02:52.80
Oh, bless me now my savior
00:02:52.83\00:02:57.61
I come to thee
00:02:57.64\00:03:03.55
Oh, bless me now my savior
00:03:03.58\00:03:10.25
I come
00:03:10.29\00:03:12.99
To thee
00:03:13.02\00:03:20.00
Sheep are constantly playing
a game of follow the leader.
00:03:24.03\00:03:27.57
That's why they need a shepherd.
00:03:27.60\00:03:29.67
Since they are not very smart
when it comes to direction,
00:03:29.70\00:03:32.61
they need a leader
that will keep them safe.
00:03:32.64\00:03:35.54
Now and then,
you'll see stories in news
00:03:35.58\00:03:37.65
about sheep falling off cliffs.
00:03:37.68\00:03:39.71
In fact, farmers
watched as 400 sheep
00:03:39.75\00:03:42.98
followed their
leader right over a cliff
00:03:43.02\00:03:45.35
and fell to their death.
00:03:45.39\00:03:47.26
Aren't you glad that
Jesus is our shepherd?
00:03:47.29\00:03:50.16
He stands at
the head of the line
00:03:50.19\00:03:51.89
and leads us
safely through life.
00:03:51.93\00:03:54.73
Thank Him for keeping you safe,
as you listen to Lenova sing,
00:03:54.76\00:03:58.37
"The Lord is My Shepherd."
00:03:58.40\00:04:00.47
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:04:07.81\00:04:11.11
I have everything I want
00:04:11.15\00:04:14.42
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:04:14.45\00:04:17.65
I have everything I want
00:04:17.69\00:04:21.42
He fills my heart with joy
00:04:21.46\00:04:24.79
He satisfies my soul
00:04:24.83\00:04:27.70
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:04:27.73\00:04:31.13
I have everything I want
00:04:31.17\00:04:34.77
When I'm hungry and thirsty
00:04:34.80\00:04:38.17
He comes and foods me up
00:04:38.21\00:04:41.38
When I'm weak and feeling lonely
00:04:41.41\00:04:45.11
He comes into my heart
00:04:45.15\00:04:48.48
I'll never be afraid
00:04:48.52\00:04:51.69
He's present every day
00:04:51.72\00:04:55.09
I feel Him standing always
00:04:55.12\00:04:58.66
Always next to me
00:04:58.69\00:05:03.06
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:05:03.10\00:05:06.40
I have everything I want
00:05:06.43\00:05:09.77
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:05:09.80\00:05:13.01
I have everything I want
00:05:13.04\00:05:16.78
He fills my heart with joy
00:05:16.81\00:05:19.95
He satisfies my soul
00:05:19.98\00:05:22.88
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:05:22.92\00:05:26.25
I have everything I want
00:05:26.29\00:05:29.69
When I'm lost in the desert
00:05:29.72\00:05:33.33
He guide me all the way
00:05:33.36\00:05:36.26
When I'm deep down in the valley
00:05:36.30\00:05:39.67
He protects me through the day
00:05:39.70\00:05:43.10
I'll never be afraid
00:05:43.14\00:05:46.57
He's present every day
00:05:46.61\00:05:49.91
I feel Him standing always
00:05:49.94\00:05:53.48
Always next to me
00:05:53.52\00:05:57.99
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:05:58.02\00:06:01.22
I have everything I want
00:06:01.26\00:06:04.53
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:06:04.56\00:06:07.63
I have everything I want
00:06:07.66\00:06:11.43
He fills my heart with joy
00:06:11.47\00:06:14.80
He satisfies my soul
00:06:14.84\00:06:17.84
Because the Lord is my shepherd
00:06:17.87\00:06:21.04
I have everything
00:06:21.08\00:06:23.28
Everything, everything I want
00:06:23.31\00:06:27.38
The very first step
00:06:31.99\00:06:33.32
you have to take in
allowing Jesus to lead you
00:06:33.36\00:06:36.09
is to open the
door of your heart.
00:06:36.12\00:06:38.13
He stands there knocking,
just waiting for you to answer.
00:06:38.16\00:06:42.03
He will never
knock the door down
00:06:42.06\00:06:43.97
or force His way in.
00:06:44.00\00:06:45.87
Will you open the door?
00:06:45.90\00:06:47.60
Think about that,
as Girls of Mercy sing
00:06:47.64\00:06:50.07
in their native
language of Malawi,
00:06:50.11\00:06:52.34
"Knock-knock."
00:06:52.37\00:06:53.81
Some of our
world's greatest leaders
00:08:10.49\00:08:12.59
weren't afraid to
leave their palaces,
00:08:12.62\00:08:14.52
or their homes, or their offices
00:08:14.56\00:08:16.56
to help people in need.
00:08:16.59\00:08:18.13
In fact, to be a great leader,
00:08:18.16\00:08:20.50
you need to connect
with your followers.
00:08:20.53\00:08:23.33
This next song is an
invitation for Jesus,
00:08:23.37\00:08:25.97
our great leader to come near
00:08:26.00\00:08:28.10
and connect with His people.
00:08:28.14\00:08:30.31
Listen now as Roger and
Tommy play on their violins,
00:08:30.34\00:08:34.11
"Kum Ba Yah."
00:08:34.14\00:08:35.48
As followers of Jesus,
00:09:57.93\00:09:59.56
we are to bring His message
of love to a dying world.
00:09:59.59\00:10:03.30
Jesus in several
places in the Bible
00:10:03.33\00:10:05.43
refers to His truth as light.
00:10:05.47\00:10:08.10
He says that we are
to let our light shine
00:10:08.14\00:10:10.54
that we are not to
hide the light we have
00:10:10.57\00:10:13.07
and that we are
the light of the world.
00:10:13.11\00:10:16.14
Brittany will now encourage
us with this next song,
00:10:16.18\00:10:19.08
"This Little Light of Mine."
00:10:19.11\00:10:20.82
This little light of
mine I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:26.29\00:10:30.59
This little light of mine
00:10:30.63\00:10:32.53
I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:32.56\00:10:34.40
This little light of
mine I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:34.43\00:10:37.93
Let it shine, let
it shine, let it shine
00:10:37.97\00:10:42.17
Let it shine till Jesus
comes I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:42.20\00:10:45.84
Let it shine till Jesus comes
00:10:45.87\00:10:47.91
I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:47.94\00:10:49.64
Let it shine till Jesus
comes I'm gonna let it shine
00:10:49.68\00:10:53.05
Let it shine, let
it shine, let it shine
00:10:53.08\00:10:57.52
While out for a
nature walk one day,
00:11:02.62\00:11:04.56
a mother and her son
came across the stream
00:11:04.59\00:11:06.90
that was too
wide to jump across.
00:11:06.93\00:11:09.40
The mother told her
son that if he followed her
00:11:09.43\00:11:12.23
and stepped on the rocks,
exactly where she stepped,
00:11:12.27\00:11:15.30
he wouldn't fall
and hurt himself.
00:11:15.34\00:11:17.31
She had crossed
00:11:17.34\00:11:18.67
this exact stream
many times as a child,
00:11:18.71\00:11:21.24
and she knew the
safe path to take.
00:11:21.28\00:11:24.65
The boy did as he was told
for the first couple of steps
00:11:24.68\00:11:27.62
and then he got
distracted by some frogs,
00:11:27.65\00:11:30.45
he saw in the water.
00:11:30.49\00:11:31.82
He quickly found out
that the rock he stepped on
00:11:31.85\00:11:34.56
to get a closer
look was very slippery
00:11:34.59\00:11:37.43
and he fell
right into the water,
00:11:37.46\00:11:39.39
scraping his
knee in the process.
00:11:39.43\00:11:41.53
When Jesus said, "Follow Me,"
00:11:41.56\00:11:44.03
He meant exactly
what that mother did.
00:11:44.07\00:11:46.80
He knows the safe path
00:11:46.84\00:11:48.47
that leads to our heavenly home.
00:11:48.50\00:11:51.17
"I praise God,
00:11:51.21\00:11:52.54
for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made."
00:11:52.57\00:11:54.48
Psalm 139:14.
00:11:54.51\00:11:57.15
Before you paint a wall,
00:13:00.18\00:13:01.64
the surface must
be prepared properly.
00:13:01.68\00:13:04.18
The wall must be clean,
00:13:04.21\00:13:05.55
and any cracks or
ding should be fixed.
00:13:05.58\00:13:08.12
Did you know that our
hearts need to be prepared too?
00:13:08.15\00:13:10.99
Yes, they do,
00:13:11.02\00:13:12.35
to get your heart
ready for eternity in heaven,
00:13:12.39\00:13:15.06
Jesus has promised,
00:13:15.09\00:13:16.42
He would take your
heart and clean it.
00:13:16.46\00:13:18.79
The only way to
truly follow Jesus
00:13:18.83\00:13:21.56
is to give Him your
heart and let Him prepare it.
00:13:21.60\00:13:25.47
James will now
sing, "Sanctuary."
00:13:25.50\00:13:28.04
Lord prepare me
00:13:36.71\00:13:40.25
To be a sanctuary
00:13:40.28\00:13:44.65
Pure and holy
00:13:44.69\00:13:48.39
Tried and true
00:13:48.42\00:13:52.36
With thanksgiving
00:13:52.39\00:13:55.80
I'll be a living
00:13:55.83\00:13:59.87
Sanctuary for You
00:13:59.90\00:14:07.84
Lord prepare me
00:14:07.88\00:14:11.25
To be a missionary
00:14:11.28\00:14:15.72
Pure and holy
00:14:15.75\00:14:19.65
Tried and true
00:14:19.69\00:14:23.76
With thanksgiving
00:14:23.79\00:14:27.40
I'll be a living
00:14:27.43\00:14:31.83
Sanctuary for You
00:14:31.87\00:14:39.77
A woman was
driving home one night,
00:14:43.38\00:14:45.25
when it started to rain so hard,
00:14:45.28\00:14:47.38
that she barely
could see in front of her.
00:14:47.42\00:14:50.02
All she knew
00:14:50.05\00:14:51.39
was that there were
taillights in front of her.
00:14:51.42\00:14:53.09
So she decided
to follow the car,
00:14:53.12\00:14:54.89
is if it seemed be
going in the right direction.
00:14:54.92\00:14:57.49
All of a sudden the car stopped.
00:14:57.53\00:14:59.46
So she stopped too.
00:14:59.49\00:15:00.93
And then that
taillights went out.
00:15:00.96\00:15:03.77
The woman was so confused
as to what was going on.
00:15:03.80\00:15:06.60
Then a man approached
her car in the pouring rain,
00:15:06.63\00:15:08.84
and knocked on her window.
00:15:08.87\00:15:10.51
She rolled it
down and asked him,
00:15:10.54\00:15:12.21
"What seems to be the problem?
00:15:12.24\00:15:13.98
Why did you stop in
the middle of the road?"
00:15:14.01\00:15:16.38
The man laughed and said,
00:15:16.41\00:15:18.01
"We aren't in the
middle of the road.
00:15:18.05\00:15:19.98
You are parked in my driveway."
00:15:20.02\00:15:22.92
It's important to be
able to see clearly, isn't it?
00:15:22.95\00:15:25.89
If you keep your eyes on Jesus,
00:15:25.92\00:15:28.22
you will be able to
see where you are going.
00:15:28.26\00:15:30.86
He is the only way.
00:15:30.89\00:15:32.86
Here's Devon and her
sister Darla singing,
00:15:32.89\00:15:35.86
"Be Thou My Vision."
00:15:35.90\00:15:37.47
Be thou my vision
oh Lord of my heart
00:15:46.31\00:15:53.75
Naught be all else
to me save that thou art
00:15:53.78\00:16:00.82
Thou my best
thought by day or by night
00:16:00.86\00:16:07.90
Waking or sleeping,
thy presence my light
00:16:07.93\00:16:15.30
Be thou my wisdom
and thou my true word
00:16:15.34\00:16:22.34
I ever with thee
and thou with me Lord
00:16:22.38\00:16:29.38
Thou my great
Father and I thy true son
00:16:29.42\00:16:36.39
Thou in me
dwelling and I with thee one
00:16:36.42\00:16:43.57
Thou my best
thought by day or by night
00:16:43.60\00:16:50.64
Waking or sleeping,
thy presence my light
00:16:50.67\00:16:58.61
Every military
troop has a leader.
00:17:04.82\00:17:07.76
And now the
leader gives the commands
00:17:07.79\00:17:09.69
and the troop follows orders.
00:17:09.72\00:17:12.29
Well, choosing Jesus
makes you a member of His army.
00:17:12.33\00:17:16.67
But unlike human leaders,
Jesus never makes mistakes.
00:17:16.70\00:17:21.50
No, not ever.
00:17:21.54\00:17:23.24
You can trust that
every one of His commands
00:17:23.27\00:17:25.97
are in your best interest.
00:17:26.01\00:17:28.28
Listen as The
Kids Time Singers sing,
00:17:28.31\00:17:30.75
"I'm in the Lord's Army."
00:17:30.78\00:17:32.45
I may never
march in the infantry
00:17:37.35\00:17:40.92
Ride in the cavalry
00:17:40.96\00:17:42.69
Shoot the artillery
00:17:42.72\00:17:44.59
I may never fly over the enemy
00:17:44.63\00:17:48.10
But I'm in the Lord's army
00:17:48.13\00:17:50.40
Yes, sir
00:17:50.43\00:17:51.77
I'm in the Lord's army
00:17:51.80\00:17:54.04
Yes, sir
00:17:54.07\00:17:55.40
I'm in the Lord's army
00:17:55.44\00:17:57.61
Yes, sir
00:17:57.64\00:17:58.97
I may never
march in the infantry
00:17:59.01\00:18:02.48
Ride in the cavalry
00:18:02.51\00:18:04.31
Shoot the artillery
00:18:04.35\00:18:06.18
I may never fly over the enemy
00:18:06.21\00:18:09.62
But I'm in the Lord's army
00:18:09.65\00:18:11.95
Yes, sir
00:18:11.99\00:18:13.39
After the Israelite army
00:18:15.09\00:18:16.52
marched around the
city of Jericho seven times
00:18:16.56\00:18:20.00
as instructed by the Lord,
00:18:20.03\00:18:21.80
they shouted and
blew their trumpets
00:18:21.83\00:18:23.67
and the walls came down.
00:18:23.70\00:18:25.77
They followed God's
instructions exactly.
00:18:25.80\00:18:28.40
And that shout
was powerful enough
00:18:28.44\00:18:31.11
to bring a city to its knees.
00:18:31.14\00:18:33.54
Remember that with God,
all things are possible,
00:18:33.58\00:18:36.64
as Avery plays on his saxophone,
00:18:36.68\00:18:39.21
"Shout to the Lord."
00:18:39.25\00:18:41.58
If a friend comes to your house,
00:21:38.76\00:21:40.73
knocks on the door and says,
00:21:40.76\00:21:42.30
"Hello, anyone home?"
00:21:42.33\00:21:44.40
Would you just let them in?
00:21:44.43\00:21:46.60
Remember that Jesus
is your very best friend
00:21:46.63\00:21:49.54
and He never wants
to leave your side.
00:21:49.57\00:21:52.11
If you choose not to let Him in,
00:21:52.14\00:21:54.48
He'll continue to
stand at the door knock,
00:21:54.51\00:21:56.85
just hoping that one
day you'll open the door.
00:21:56.88\00:22:00.25
Holly would bring
us this next song,
00:22:00.28\00:22:02.65
"Behold, Behold."
00:22:02.68\00:22:04.55
Behold, Behold
00:22:08.79\00:22:11.33
I stand at the door
And knock, knock, knock
00:22:11.36\00:22:13.96
Behold, Behold
00:22:14.00\00:22:16.56
I stand at the door
And knock, knock, knock
00:22:16.60\00:22:19.17
If anyone hear my
voice If anyone hear my voice
00:22:19.20\00:22:23.97
And will open,
open, open the door
00:22:24.01\00:22:27.01
I will come in
00:22:27.04\00:22:29.54
Behold, Behold
00:22:29.58\00:22:32.21
I stand at the door
And knock, knock, knock
00:22:32.25\00:22:34.78
Behold, Behold
00:22:34.82\00:22:37.29
I stand at the door
And knock, knock, knock
00:22:37.32\00:22:39.95
If anyone hear my
voice If anyone hear my voice
00:22:39.99\00:22:44.89
And will open,
open, open the door
00:22:44.93\00:22:47.83
I will come in
00:22:47.86\00:22:51.00
Have you ever observed a
field full of sunflowers?
00:22:54.00\00:22:57.54
If you watch them throughout
the day, you'll notice,
00:22:57.57\00:23:00.38
they're always facing the sun.
00:23:00.41\00:23:02.84
It's really quite fascinating.
00:23:02.88\00:23:04.71
I love to see them.
00:23:04.75\00:23:06.51
I first saw field of sunflowers,
00:23:06.55\00:23:08.42
when I was in Germany
and it was so beautiful,
00:23:08.45\00:23:11.29
thousands of sunflowers
turning towards the sun.
00:23:11.32\00:23:14.96
We should be
like those sunflowers,
00:23:14.99\00:23:17.03
keeping our faces
always turned toward Jesus,
00:23:17.06\00:23:20.40
our eyes always on Him.
00:23:20.43\00:23:22.83
If we are looking at
Jesus, we can't get distracted
00:23:22.86\00:23:26.17
by all the things of this world,
00:23:26.20\00:23:28.14
the things that will
surely keep us out of heaven.
00:23:28.17\00:23:32.07
Let's listen as Sofia
sings for us right now,
00:23:32.11\00:23:34.98
"Lead Me, Lord."
00:23:35.01\00:23:36.91
Lead me, Lord
00:23:43.52\00:23:46.72
Lead me by the hand
00:23:46.76\00:23:48.96
And help me face the rising sun
00:23:48.99\00:23:53.60
Comfort me through all the pain
00:23:53.63\00:23:56.20
That life may bring
00:23:56.23\00:23:59.80
There's no other hope
00:23:59.83\00:24:01.80
That I can lean upon
00:24:01.84\00:24:06.41
Lead me, Lord
00:24:06.44\00:24:09.31
Lead me all my life
00:24:09.34\00:24:15.18
Walk by me, walk by me
00:24:15.22\00:24:20.12
Across the lonely
roads that I may face
00:24:20.16\00:24:25.59
Take my arms and let
your hand Show me the way
00:24:25.63\00:24:32.43
Show the way to
live inside your heart
00:24:32.47\00:24:38.34
All my days
00:24:38.37\00:24:41.48
All my life
00:24:41.51\00:24:46.85
You are my light
00:24:46.88\00:24:50.79
You're the lamp upon my feet
00:24:50.82\00:24:53.89
All the time, my
Lord I need you there
00:24:53.92\00:24:59.46
You are my light
00:24:59.49\00:25:03.60
I cannot live alone
00:25:03.63\00:25:06.53
Let me stay, by
your guiding love
00:25:06.57\00:25:12.11
All through my life
00:25:12.14\00:25:18.48
Lead me, Lord
00:25:18.51\00:25:24.85
You are my light
00:25:24.89\00:25:28.82
You're the lamp upon my feet
00:25:28.86\00:25:31.99
All the time, my
Lord I need you there
00:25:32.03\00:25:37.53
You are my light
00:25:37.57\00:25:41.57
I just cannot live alone
00:25:41.60\00:25:44.51
Let me stay, by
your guiding love
00:25:44.54\00:25:50.05
All through my life
00:25:50.08\00:25:53.62
All through my days
00:25:53.65\00:25:56.48
Lead me, Lord
00:25:56.52\00:26:00.59
Lead me, Lord
00:26:02.99\00:26:09.00
Boys and girls,
00:26:15.34\00:26:16.67
I hope you never get
tired of following Jesus.
00:26:16.71\00:26:20.48
Sometimes the
journey may seem long,
00:26:20.51\00:26:22.94
but the rewards are
definitely worth it.
00:26:22.98\00:26:26.61
Do you remember the Israelites,
00:26:26.65\00:26:28.48
they left Egypt and followed God
00:26:28.52\00:26:30.75
in a pillar of fire by
night and a cloud by day.
00:26:30.79\00:26:35.09
And when they finally
reached the Promise Land,
00:26:35.12\00:26:38.96
they were too afraid to go in.
00:26:38.99\00:26:41.53
God has prepared
so many things for us
00:26:41.56\00:26:44.10
that are beyond our imagination.
00:26:44.13\00:26:46.70
And you don't ever want
to be afraid to follow Jesus.
00:26:46.74\00:26:50.27
He is trustworthy
and He loves you so much.
00:26:50.31\00:26:53.31
He can't imagine
heaven without you.
00:26:53.34\00:26:55.94
Remember, it's Kids
Time to Praise Jesus.
00:26:55.98\00:26:59.68
