Toning Up 101

Everyone back there move up front come on don't be shy
All of us have that common want as none of us can deny
I just say don't be afraid and never, never be ashamed
No one will be receiving a grade all shall remain unnamed

First, a little Praise to start, and lets open those eyes wide
Feel the burn in your heart that's the melting of such pride
Lets reach down for one more, something truly heartfelt
Now open up that door and feel all of that stuff just melt

The next exercise I will show is really just one in the same
It's when we let ourselves know that Jesus took all our blame
Vision Him taking all of our blame and sense all of that pain
Now sing out His Glorious Name  come on, I said don't be shy
For here there is never any shame in needing Jesus to get by

Okay there's an assignment tonight, find one star in the sky
And thank Him for His might without ever asking Him why
Just like in class today we want to concentrate on His praise
That's the start, to pray, okay everyone see you in a few days


Don't forget to pick up your cell phones at the door.

Beautiful imagery of a classroom, encouraging us to thank God for everything:)
