Kids’ Creed
There is one God
One and only
There is one God
Who is God to me
He’s my Father
He’s my dad
He won’t leave me
Father always keeps me safe
He is Jesus
He’s my friend
He’s my hero
Jesus shows me what to do
He’s the Spirit
He’s my strength
He is with me
Spirit hugs me when I’m down

Resound Worship’s 12 Song Challenge this month was to take inspiration from the great creeds of the church. I was at the annual Resound Worship Songwriters’ Retreat at Wydale Hall in Yorkshire, UK so had plenty of time to reflection, and I took inspiration from the Nicene Creed. Pairing up with the very talented Sue Crossman of Hopestream Worship, we came up with this.
Each verse focusses on expanding, in language simple enough for children, each person of the Trinity. Since writing it, we’ve used it regularly in our Sunday School and family services and it’s a hit with young and old alike.
