Why Can't I See God?



01. Why Can't I See God?

Why can't I see God?  Is He watching me?
Is He somewhere out in space, or is He here with me?
I am just a child; Teach me from His Word…
Then I’ll go and tell to all the great things I have heard!

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!

Can I talk to God?  Does He hear my prayer?
Will He answer when I pray?  Does He really care?
Did God make the world?  What's the Trinity?
Is there something God can't do?
Tell these things to me.

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!

02. God Made Me

God made me and everything that in this world I see;
For His own glory God made everything and me!
He made the seas, the mountains high, the big bright rainbow in the sky!
For His own glory God made everything, and ME!

God made the sunshine bright; stars that twinkle in the night!
He made the butterfly…See the butterfly flutter by!

God made me and everything that in this world I see;
For His own glory God made everything and me!

God made the kangaroo, fish that swim in the ocean blue!
He made the bear and lion…sticky, prickly porcupine!

God made me and everything that in this world I see;
For His own glory God made everything and me!
God made me and everything that in this world I see;
For His own glory God made everything and ME!

03. How Can I Glorify God?

How can I glorify God?  For I must glorify God;
And I can glorify God by loving Him and keeping His commands.

How can you glorify God?  For you must glorify God;
And you can glorify God by loving Him and keeping His commands!

I want to praise the Lord and thank him everyday;
He'll know my love is real if I will just obey!

How can I glorify God?  For I must glorify God;
And I can glorify God by loving Him and keeping His commands.

If you want to praise the Lord and thank Him everyday,
He'll know your love is real if you will just obey!

How can you glorify God?  For you must glorify God;
And you can glorify God by loving Him and keeping His commands!

04. Why Should You Glorify God?

Why should you, why should I
Glorify God, can you tell me why?
Because He made us, don’t you see?
And he takes care of you and me!

If you glorify the Lord,
Living according to His Word,
He will be to you a friend,
And He will keep you to the end!

So why should you, why should I
Glorify God, can you tell me why?
Because He made us, don’t you see?
And he takes care of you and me!

06. God is a Spirit

God is a Spirit, just think of the wind…
He doesn't have a body like men, oh no!
He doesn't have a body like men.

Just think of the wind blowing here, blowing there…
Just like the wind He's everywhere, oh yes!
Just like the wind He's everywhere.

God is infinite, eternal, unchangeable, too,
In His being and wisdom and power and holiness,
Justice and goodness and truth!

God is a Spirit, just think of the wind…
He doesn't have a body like men, oh no!
He doesn't have a body like men.

07. I'm Hiding from Mommy

I'm hiding from Mommy and no one can see;
I'm hiding and no one will know!
But I just remembered that God's watching me;
He knows everything that I do.

I cannot see God, but He always sees me…
Nothing can be hid from God.

When I'm in the kitchen and no one's around,
I know I can sneak and get cookies;
But I will obey what my mother has said,
For I know that God will be looking!

I cannot see God, but He always sees me…
Nothing can be hid from God.

When Dad says "Good night!"
And he turns out the light,
And darkness is covering me;
I think about God Who can see
Through the night
And thank Him He's caring for me!

I cannot see God, but He always sees me…
Nothing can be hid from God.

I'm hiding from Mommy and no one can see;
I'm hiding and no one will know!
But I just remembered that God's watching me;
He knows everything that I do.

I cannot see God, but He always sees me…
Nothing can be hid from God.

08. God Can Do Anything

Is there anyone who can ever do
Anything that he wants to do?
Yes, God can, God can do all His holy will!
I'm so glad that God watches over me,
And He always does what is best for me,
And God will, always, do all His holy will.

God never changes, He remains the same;
He has a plan to glorify His name.
Man makes a plan, but God directs his way;
He is doing all His holy will each day!

Is there anyone who can ever do
Anything that he wants to do?
Yes, God can, God can do all His holy will!
I'm so glad that God watches over me,
And He always does what is best for me,
And God will, always, do all His holy will.

We never need to worry or to fear;
God has control of all things far and near.
If we should stand or even if we fall,
God is working out His purpose in it all!

Is there anyone who can ever do
Anything that he wants to do?
Yes, God can, God can do all His holy will!
I'm so glad that God watches over me,
And He always does what is best for me,
And God will, always, do all His holy will.
Yes, God will, always, do all His holy will.

09. Where Do You Learn?

Where you learn how to love and obey;
How to love and obey God the Father?
In the Bible alone…only there can you learn
How to love and obey our great God!

Many men long ago wrote the Bible we know,
Holy men who were taught by the Spirit.
Help us, Lord, everyday, your commands to obey,
As we learn from the Bible alone.

When your friends tell you something you feel is wrong,
And the world tells you what you should do;
You can find all the answers within God's Word…
It was written for me and for you!

Oh, where you learn how to love and obey;
How to love and obey God the Father?
In the Bible alone…only there can you learn
How to love and obey our great God!

10. Adam and Eve

Adam and Eve were our first father and mother;
God made Adam from the dust of the earth,
And Eve was made from Adam,
And God gave to Adam and Eve a soul that could never die;
They were happy and holy in the garden that day until Satan told his lie.
And I have a soul like our first father and mother,
And I want to serve the Lord with all of my soul, and never serve another,
And then I'll be happy and holy and not believe Satan's lie…
For just like Adam and Eve,
I have a soul that will never, ever die.

And then I'll be happy and holy and not believe Satan's lie…
For just like Adam and Eve,
I have a soul that will never, ever die.
For just like Adam and Eve,
I have a soul that will never, ever die.

11. God Made a Covenant with Adam

God made a covenant with Adam…
He promised life to Adam on that day.
He told Adam he would live forever,
If His command he perfectly obeyed.
But if he went his own way and didn't follow God, then he would have to die someday and life would be so hard.
Oh, Adam!  Life is yours if you obey.

Satan the serpent came to Eden
And said to Eve, "Now listen to me…
You'll surely never die, but you'll be wise as God, if you just eat the fruit upon this tree!"
And Eve believed the serpent
And broke the Lord's command,
And Adam also sinned and they were driven from the land!

Oh, Adam!  Selfishness brings misery.
Oh oh, Adam!  Selfishness brings misery!

12. Jesus Our Redeemer

Blessed be the wisdom and the power,
The justice and the grace,
That joined in counsel to restore
And save our ruined race!

Our father Adam ate the fruit
And from his glory fell;
And we his children then were brought to death
And near to hell.

Praise be to God that sent His Son
To take on flesh and blood;
He gave His life a sacrifice
To make our peace with God!

He honored all His Father's laws
Which we have disobeyed;
He bore our sins upon the cross,
For us the ransom paid.

He rose victorious from the grave
And now He lives on high;
He pleads His merits there to save
Transgressors doomed to die.

There on a glorious throne He reigns,
And by His  power divine,
Redeems us from the slavish chains
Of Satan and of sin.

Someday the Lord will come to judge
And with a sovereign voice,
Shall call the dead from every grave
While living saints rejoice!

Oh may I then with joy appear
Before the Judge's face;
And with the saints forevermore
Sing His redeeming grace!
~By Isaac Watts; Adapted by Judy Rogers



13. The Salvation Song

The praises of my tongue
I offer to the Lord,
And thank Him I was taught so young
To love His holy Word!

Oh Lord, Your Word alone
Instructs me where to go
For grace to pardon all my sin
And make me holy, too.

I'm glad I came to know
How Jesus, God's own Son,
Gave His life upon the cross
To set us free from sin.

And now He reigns above
And sends His Spirit down
To show the wonders of His love
And make His gospel known.

Oh Holy Spirit, teach,
And make my heart receive
The truth which all your servants preach
And all your saints believe!

Yes, I shall praise the Lord,
And thank him everyday
That I was taught to love His Word
And follow in His way!
~By Isaac Watts; Adaption and Original Melody by Judy Rogers



14. Jesus, Our Prophet, Priest, and King

Jesus, our Prophet, our Priest, and our King
We bow down before Him, and to Him we sing,
Hosanna!  Hosanna!  Our praises we bring -
To Jesus, our Prophet, our Priest, and our King!

God spoke to His people in so many ways,
Through prophets like Moses in long ago days;
And now in these last days He speaks through His Son;
By His Word and His Spirit, God's will is made known.

Jesus, our Priest, made the great sacrifice,
He shed His own blood so that we might have life!
He prays unto God for His children each day,
"Oh Father, please keep them in Your holy way."

Jesus our King is exalted above
He rules and defends all his people He loves
He fights all our battles, in Him we are free
And He will destroy His and our enemies.

Jesus, our Prophet, our Priest, and our King
We bow down before Him, and to Him we sing,
Hosanna!  Hosanna!  Our praises we bring -
To Jesus, our Prophet, our Priest, and our King!

"Hosanna!  Hosanna!  Our praises we bring -
To Jesus, our Prophet, our Priest, and our King!"

15. Ten Commandments

Thou shalt have no other gods but Me;
Before no idol bow thy knee.
Take not the Name of God in vain;
Nor dare the Sabbath Day profane.
Give both thy parents honor due;
Take heed that thou no murder do.
Abstain from words and deeds unclean;
Nor steal, though thou art poor and lean.
And do not lie, but always say what is true,
And covet not the things that don't belong to you!

Thou shalt have no other gods but Me;
Before no idol bow thy knee.
Take not the Name of God in vain;
Nor dare the Sabbath Day profane.
Give both thy parents honor due;
Take heed that thou no murder do.

Nor steal, though thou art poor and lean.
And do not lie, but always say what is true,
And covet not the things that don't belong to you!

16. The Greatest Commandment

With all your soul love God above,
And as yourself your neighbor love;
And be to others kind and true,
As you'd have others be to you…

With your heart and all your mind;

17. What is a Sacrament?

What is a sacrament?
It is a holy ordinance
Given by Christ unto believers
Showing His great love for us.

Baptism was ordained,
And the  Lord's Supper;
Jesus gave them to His church
To keep and to remember.

Sacraments, given us by Christ
To signify and apply God's covenant to our lives.

Sacraments cannot
Bring to us salvation;
Only God who gives us faith
Can make us new creations.

And His Spirit moves,
Living and working through us;
And by special signs God seals
His covenant blessings to us.

Sacraments, given us by Christ
To signify and apply God's covenant to our lives.
To signify and apply God's covenant to our lives.

18. The Sacraments

We celebrate the sacraments
God has so ordained it in His Word;
We humbly bow before Him now,
As we celebrate the sacraments.

Baptism is a picture
Of the cleansing of our sins through Jesus' blood;
The water is a sign I am no longer mine,
But now I belong to God.

We celebrate the sacraments
God has so ordained it in His Word;
We humbly bow before Him now,
As we celebrate the sacraments.

When we receive communion.
We remember Jesus' death until He comes again;
The bread and the wine are a seal and sign
To God's people of His love for them.

We celebrate the sacraments
As God has ordained in His Word.
We humbly bow before Him now
As we celebrate the sacraments…the sacraments!

19. Let Us Pray

God has not left us to find our own way…
He has commanded that we are to pray;
Let us pray!  Ask forgiveness, repenting of all of our sin.
And thank Him for mercies He's shown is again and again…
Give Him the glory and honor forever, Amen!

Pray that you will not be tempted to sin…
And if you are that you'll never give in.
Pray for wisdom and patience,
And pray for your enemies, too!
Pray according to His will,
And He'll do the best thing for you!
Give him the glory and honor forever, Amen!

God will not listen to just anyone…
Only believers who trust in His Son
Have the promise He hears us;
On Him we may cast all our cares.
Pray in His name, believing…
And He'll answer all of our prayers!

Give him the glory and honor forever, Amen!
Give him the glory and honor forever, Amen!

20. The Lord's Prayer

Our Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom, and power, and the glory, forever.
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen.
~Matthew 6:9-13



21. Why Can't I See God? (Reprise)

Why can't I see God?  Is He watching me?
Is He somewhere out in space, or is He here with me?
I am just a child; Teach me from His Word…
Then I’ll go and tell to all the great things I have heard!

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!

Can I talk to God?  Does He hear my prayer?
Will He answer when I pray?  Does He really care?
Did God make the world?  What's the Trinity?
Is there something God can't do?
Tell these things to me.

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!

Teach me while my heart is tender;
Tell me all that I should know
And even through the years I will remember
No matter where I go!
