We thank you parents, and staff for coming to our Pre-primary liturgy. Today we gather to
thank God for giving us the gift of life. We thank him for providing for us, and to keep us
living. Today we are thankful for the sacrament of Baptism, which assists us in a new life
with God.

Lord,
You tell us to spread the good word of yourself. We are sorry for the times we only think
about ourselves and don’t share your love with others.

Today, we will reflect on God’s gifts. We encourage you to listen to our reflection song and
focus on your flower. We encourage you to give a personal thanks to God for the gifts in your
life.
There will be a pre-recording of the students singing this song. Lyrics displayed on the IWB.
Song :
Once I thought the love of God was just for you and me.
Once I thought we were the only ones.
Now I know God’s love can find all those from sea to sea;
And when it finds them, they become His sons.
God’s love is warmer than the warmest sunshine,
Softer than a sigh.
God’s love is deeper than the deepest ocean,
Wider than the sky.
God’s love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above;
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change His love.
Blessing
Education Assistant
Amen
Teacher: The children will share with you a performance, the song Once I thought the love
of God that you heard before, now live with actions.
Once I thought the love of God was just for you and me [point to audience and self].
Once I thought we were the only ones. [number 1]
Now I know God’s love can find all those from sea to sea [looking from left to right];
And when it finds them, they become His sons [pointing to audience]
God’s love is warmer than the warmest sunshine, [wrap arms around neighbours shoulders]
Softer than a sigh.
God’s love is deeper than the deepest ocean [bop to the floor],
Wider than the sky. [stretch arms wide]
God’s love is brighter than the brightest star [make star with hands]
That shines every night above [open up arms]
And there is nothing in this world [shake finger]
That can ever change His love. [point to heart.
We thank you for coming to our Pre-primary liturgy. Please go forth and spread God’s love!
