Suggested Movements
Children may make a fist and pretend that is their “frog” and jump it to the beat from one side of their lap to the other. Children are seated for this song as they watch the “frog” puppet. After the phrase “‘Cause Philemon Frog keeps the golden rule….” there is a short pause where you may say “which is” and motion the children to sing: “Treat other people as you’d like them to treat you!” They should learn that phrase in an explanation of the Golden Rule prior to singing the song.
Suggested Props:
Golden Ruler, Friendly Philemon Frog Puppet

My Furry Lisa, little lamb, lost in the land, come back to me. Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
My Furry Lisa Lamb, My Furry Lisa Lamb….

GOOD TO ME!
Chorus:
//Good to me, my God’s good to me!
Makes me slap-happy to be alive!//
Verses:
In the morning when I rise
Wipe the sleep out from my eyes
Then I leap upon my feet and sing His praise
Sky of blue or sky of gray
He’s given me breathe for a brand new day
///So I leap upon my feet/// and sing His praise.
So all throughout the day
No matter what comes my way
To others that I meet I”ll speak His praise.
Then when I go to bed
I will humbly bow my head
///Before I go to sleep/// I’ll sing His praise.
