SINGING ACTIVITIES to Motivate Singing

IDEAS TO PRESENT THIS SONG:
1. Tell children that this song tells us that our life is a gift and that our life has a plan (illustrated by #2 and 3 below).
2. Show show children a map or draw one on the board. Tell them that a map or plan tells us how we can get from place to place. Heavenly Father did not send us to earth without a map of how we would get back. Post the words “Heaven” at the top and “Earth” at the bottom.
3. Show a gift box wrapped with a bow on top. (Have the box large enough to enclose the visuals for this song – downloaded above). Then have children one at a time pull out visuals to hold them up to learn the song (possibly pulling out a verse at a time).

Lyrics

My life is a gift; my life has a plan.

My life has a purpose; in heav’n it began.

My choice was to come to this lovely home on earth

And seek for God’s light to direct me from birth.

I will follow God’s plan for me,

Holding fast to his word and his love.

I will work, and I will pray;

I will always walk in his way.

Then I will be happy on earth

And in my home above.
