When I am baptized
(by Nancy Wells)
 
 
I plan to hold up a baptismal dress and tell the children how I felt when I was baptized.  

There will already be a large rainbow on the wall behind me. 

I will sing the song through and show them how the first line of the song forms a rainbow with the melody.  

There will be key words or phrases to the song hidden under their chairs and I will ask them to find them:

Then I will have them listen again to the song as I sing it. They will need to decide the order of the words.  

After they place the words/phrases on the rainbow, I will sing the song through again to see if all the words are in the correct order. 

We will change any that need changing and listen to check again. 

Then I will have them sing it with me one line at a time.
