Down Under

Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song as a theme song for a kids camp we did. The song outlived the camp, and is still enjoyed by hundreds of kids today. You can see the actions on my "Gotta Be a Doer" video, see www.MrsKate.com

Lyrics

Well, if I'm down under
Up and over
Sittin' on the ground.
Outback in the boonies
Or truckin' through the town.
Flyin' in an airplane or
Divin' in the sea?
One thing I know for sure:
Jesus lives in me!

And He said,
I'll never leave you
I won't forsake you, kid.
No one can snatch you out of My hand.
I'd stomp 'em if they did.
You're my little sheep
And I died so you could be
Totally forgiven
And walkin' round with Me.

Last time ending:
Totally forgiven
And walkin' round with Me.
(Way down under, You're a wonder)
Walkin' round with Me.
