nice upbeat feel to the song

This is brilliant........ love this song.....This will find a home for sure......

Great for kids!

Hi Kate!! Another fun tune!! I love your positive messages!!

Now, I'm not sure and I'm not a betting person, but I'd say this is Kate Carpenter. Now, if I'm wrong.....I will purchase this song out- right!! But, I have a feeling, a feeling deep down inside as the Beatles sang! Great Job mystery singer, this has Children's songs written all over it!! This person is a true Master of Kids tunes!!!

Must be Kate! You have a stand out style - diffcult in this day and age!

I thought this would be a great song for a children's show

I love it! I can hear this in a commercial, movie, tv show, kids production, etc!!!!! This is excellent and a lil quirky.... I just like it... Very simple, rustic, yet well executed. The track is very versatile to me. Keep making these! I hope you get as many placements as you can. I like the placement of the elements in the mix. I like the rawness kept on the vocals.... Best of all the message is on point! We gotta be doers!!!! Lyrics flow perfectly! GREAT WORK!!!!!!

Great Children's song with a catchy melody! Children I am sure all over the world would love to sing to this song! Well done!

Perfect lyrics and melody teaching this biblical principle. Loved it this song would sell extremely well for vacation bible school curriculum . Also any Christian kids shows on tbn, etc. I am very sure that you have other songs like this in your collection, would encourage you to have a cd like this for Sunday school curriculum!

So clever and every church would be blessed to have you sing this at their church.

Amen, got to be a doer.

Bless you,
Janet Murphy

I loved the message within the lyrics. This is a fun Sunday school song for kids. I could see it working well with a puppet ministry at church for kids. I think I know who this is and this is another fun Christian Kids song.


for some reason this song reminds me of something for children. I would definitely recommend it for my grandchildren. Words simple, repetitive,fun way to teach a song. At the same time a bridge recommended to switch up and keep interest in song.

Has a very catchy hook and I can visualize this in children's Sunday schools, church recitals and plays. Good job.

a fun happy song that will put a smile on your face within the first minute. ideal music for its genre. very catchy liked it all and the ending,

very original and creative. all the vocal parts neatly done. Love the bass. Inspiring and uplifting - call to action. Really like it.

this sounds a bit different to my European ears,in positive way.
