When I was just a kid
Oh, the colorful eggs we hid
We played all day
It was always a fun way
Then we would eat our lunch
Sometimes it was brunch
Then off to play some more
Until it became a bore
When the evening drew near
Story time was here
Everyone had a story to tell
And it was really swell
When the evening was almost done
I always wanted to hear a special one
I wanted to hear the greatest story ever told
About Jesus and the way he was sold
How He died on the cross
And it was a great loss
But then He came back again
And once more walked among men
How He said he would return once more
He would come to open the door
We would be swept up
There would be no mix up
Believers would go to be with Him
For those who did not it would be grim
What a day that will be
When Him we get to see.
