Children of the World

Children of the World

Each new day, the sun arises,

Spreading warmth over all the earth.

Young and old share in this same light,

All are children/ of the world.

We are brothers, we are sisters.

We are children of the world,

Not by blood or name or nation,

but the bonds of life we share,

When we celebrate our differences we find we’re much the same,

We’re a family together,

We’re children of the world.

Of the world.

Lightning sparks and heaven thunders,

Pouring rain over all the land,

All may drink this precious water,

Who are children/ of the world.

We are brothers, we are sisters,

We are children of the world.

Not by blood or name or nation, but the bonds of life we share,

When we celebrate our differences we find we’re much the same,

We’re a family together,

We’re children of the world.(short ending)

(very quietly)

We laugh, We love and live and breathe,

We cry, We help a friend in need.

We are brothers, we are sisters,

We are children of the world,

Not by blood or name or nation, but the bonds of life we share,

When we celebrate our differences we find we’re much the same,

We’re a family together,

We’re children of the world.

Of the world.

We’re children/ of the world.    

Muscles & Bones (Year 5 only)

Muscles & Bones

Chorus

When you nod your head,

Manoeuvre the cranium,

Or stamp your feet,

Twenty-six bones each,

When you clap your hands,

A clash of the phalanges,

There’s a lot going on underneath.

O, the skin is a fabulous thing to be in,

But it can’t get round on its own.

Every action needs a muscle contraction

And a lot of support from your bones.

Verse 1

Now the average newborn baby has over 300 bones,

And then some will fuse together on the way to being totally grown.

So the average adult human has only 206,

But there are still enough of them to hold you up

And do some pretty impressive tricks.

The longest is the femur, in the thigh is where you’ll find it;

The strongest is the tibia, and the fibula is behind it.

Oh, it’s great to know you’re a vertebrate, it’s divine to have a spine,

So let’s celebrate the fact that our backbone’s stacked

And give it ten out of nine for design.

Chorus

Verse 2

You’ve got more than six hundred muscles

And they always work in pairs.

There are even very small ones

At the root of every one of your hairs.

When you’re sitting down watching telly,

When you’re sitting on top of the bus,

The very bottom line

Is that you’re spending time

Upon your gluteus maximus.

Your mum might wag her finger

If you accidentally vex her,

In other words,

She’s exercising a warning digital flexor.

We depend on muscles and tendons too,

And it makes you stop and think….

It takes seventeen to smile,

Forty three to frown,

And slightly over one hundred to wink.

Chorus

Singing Altogether Round

Singing – All together,

Singing – Just for joy.

Singing – All together,

Every girl and boy.

Everybody singing a song,

Everybody singing a song,

Everybody sing all day long,

Everybody sing all day long

Put Your Hand in My Hand

Put your hand in my hand,

You can be my friend.

We don’t have to look the same, to let our voices blend.

We can trust each other

We can try again

If you put your hand in my hand

I will be your friend.

We can share the whole world,

We can understand

We don’t have to think the same to stand here hand in hand.

We can live together

Learning to depend

If you put your hand in my hand,

I will be your friend.

If you put your hand in my hand,

I will be your friend.

Firefly

Firefly, shining in the night.

Firefly, spectacle of light,

Flashing and flickering, oh so bright,

Firefly - - shining in the night.

Why are you hiding in the light of the day?

Only igniting when the sun goes away.

Flashing, flickering,

Flickering, flashing,

Flashing, flickering,     

Firefly.

Firefly, shining in the night.

Firefly, spectacle of light,

Flashing and flickering, oh so bright,

Firefly - - shining in the night.

Why are you hiding ‘til the moon’s in the sky?

Only igniting when the evening is nigh.

Flashing flickering, etc

Firefly, shining in the night.

Firefly, spectacle of light,

Flashing and flickering, oh so bright,

Firefly - - shining in the night.

Firefly.

SING. Lyrics and Video

Sing by Gary Barlow and A Lloyd Webber. VIDEO

Some words they can’t be spoken, only sung,

So hear a thousand voices shouting love,

There’s a place, there’s a time in this life,

When you sing what you are feeling,

Find your feet, stand your ground,

Don’t you see right now

The world is listening to what we say.

Sing it louder, sing it clearer,

Knowing everyone will hear you.

Make some noise,

Find your voice tonight.

Sing it stronger, sing together,

Make this moment last forever,

Old and young shouting love tonight.

Verse 2

To sing we’ve had a lifetime to wait.

And see a thousand faces celebrate.

You brought hope,

You brought light,

Conquered fear,

No it wasn’t always easy.

Stood your ground,

Kept your faith,

Don’t you see right now the world is listening to what we say.

Sing it louder, sing it clearer,

Knowing everyone will hear you.

Make some noise,

Find your voice tonight.

Sing it stronger, sing together,

Make this moment last forever,

Old and young shouting love tonight.

Verse 3

Some words they can’t be spoken only sung,

So hear a thousand voices shouting love

And light and hope.

Just sing,

Just sing,

Just sing,

Just sing (Come on and sing it louder, sing it clearer,

Knowing everyone will hear you,

Make some noise,

Find your voice tonight,

Sing it stronger, Sing together,

Make this moment last forever,

Old and young, shouting love tonight.

(Unison choir only)

Hear a thousand voices shouting love.
