Lyrics

My Bible is yummy
I gobble it up
Stories about Jesus--I can't get enough
Of the Psalms and the Proverbs, Epistles and more
Conocere' mas de mi Padre Senor.

Y canto

Chomp Chomp Chomp
I'm eatin' up the Word.
Chomp Chomp Chomp
Like a hungry little bird
Chomp Chomp Chomp
Like a mousey eatin' cheese
Leyendo de Dios me hace feliz!
Leyendo de Dios me hace feliz!

Translations:
Conocere....I will know more about my Father God
Y canto.....and I sing
Leyendo....Reading about God makes me happy.
