Did Jesus Really Live Again?



I chose to teach "Did Jesus Really Live Again" as a scripture song for the month of April.  You can see how I am implementing scripture songs into singing time this year HERE.  When I teach "scripture songs" I try to spend more time focusing on the doctrine the song is teaching rather than memorizing the words.

I love how this song asks questions that people might wonder about and then provides the answers to the questions. The entire song seems like a conversation between two people.  So I printed out the questions and the answers to the questions on separate pieces of paper.  I led a discussion with the primary children talking about the three questions the song asks and the answers.  We briefly discussed the events that happened when Jesus was resurrected.  Then I held up the paper with the questions and we sang it.  I followed this by holding up the words to the answer and we sang that.  We sang all three verses this way.

Next time we sing this song I am going to have all of the teachers stand together facing the children.  Then the teachers will sing the questions and the children will sing the answers. After a few times through we might switch parts.

You can print the word strips that I used HERE.
