(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.

• ABC Maze - uppercase
• Faith Activity
- Give the child an apple. Ask the child what is inside the apple? (seeds, the white part of the apple, juice) Tell the child that you have a secret...there is really a star in the apple! The child will probably doubt this statement. "How can we find out if there really is a star inside?" (cut open the apple) "Do you trust me that there is a star inside without us cutting it open?" (cut the apple from side to side through the seed part) Show the child how the seeds in the apple and the area around the seeds look like a star. Explain that just as the child had to have faith that you were correct about the star, we have faith that Jesus is real even though we can't see Him.
- Extends this activity by doing apple prints. Have the child write "I Have Faith" at the top of a piece of construction paper. Dab the apple several times onto a cloth to remove excess moisture. Place paint into a shallow tray. Have the child dip the apple into the paint (or paint the apple) and then place on the paper.
