1st verse:
- show a picture of the resurrected Christ with his disciples
- sing the first 2 lines (try not to breath between send and The at the end of the first line to make more sense of the statement)
- Tell the children that Christ made a promise. Ask them what the promise was. Sing the first 2 lines again for the answer.
- Why did He send the Holy Ghost? Sing the first 2 lines again for the answer.
- Have the children sing it with you 3 times, after each time ask one of the above questions. This helps them remember the words and the concept.
- Sing the last 2 lines. Explain that Holy Spirit means the same as Holy Ghost, just like Jesus is the same as Christ.
- Ask, "Does the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost ever yell or speak loudly?"
- Sing the 3rd line softly, then have the children sing softly with you.
- Sing the last line. Ask the children what "testify" means. Help them understand the meaning.
- Sing the last line with the children a little louder than the third line.
- Put the whole song together remembering to sing the 3rd line softer.
