Jesus, you didn't make my sandwiches

Jesus, you didn't make my sandwiches

This song is based on Colossians 1:17, and Matthew 6:25-34. I wrote it because it's just what a load of kids are thinking at Harvest: "Hang on, God didn't make all my food - my Mum did!". The song answers that issue, and still leaves us praising God for all his involvement!

Lyrics:

1. Jesus, you didn't make
my sandwiches.
The supermarket's
where I get my jam.
But everything I eat,
every yummy scrummy treat:
Your creating power
is where it all began!

2. Jesus I won't ask you
for an ice cream;
I'd better get my cookies
from a shop.
But bananas grow on trees,
Jesus you provide the breeze,
and the sunshine
and the rain for the whole lot!

3. Jesus you're the one
behind the Harvest;
it's because of you that
there are crops to reap.
O thank you that it's true,
that we all depend on you-
Thank you Jesus
that you give us food to eat!
