My response to Pawpaw

I usually do the following:

2-4 years old:
Jesus Loves Me
Peter and james and John in the Sailboat
Jesus Loves the Little Children

4-6 years old:
I have decided to follow Jesus
Do Lord, Oh, do Lord, Oh Do remember me ...
Change my heart Oh God

7 and up:
Psalm 100 - Make a Joyful Noise Unto the Lord
Isaiah 40 - Do you not know, have you not heard ...
Amazing Grace - the upbeat melody of it ...

Most of those are on my wiki if you need to print them out ...
