Up and down
Round and round (draw circles in the air)
Put your fingers on the ground
Over (hold hands above lap)
Under (move hands below legs)
In between (you've hidden your hands in between your legs)
Now my fingers can't be seen!
Hands in front
Hands behind
Now my hands I cannot find
Here's my left hand
Here's my right
Hands and fingers back in sight (wriggle fingers)

(Use the Wordless Book and show or present the colors in the order and at the time indicated in capital letters as you sing.)
(BLACK) My heart was dark with sin
until the Savior came in.
(RED) His precious blood I know
(WHITE) Has washed it white as snow.
(GOLD) And in His Word I'm told
I'll walk the streets of gold.
(GREEN) To grow in Christ each day
I read the Bible and pray.
