Sunday School Songs Free Download,
The B-I-B-L-E
Sunday School songs, free! Download "The B-I-B-L-E", a great song for shouting at Vacation Bible School or Children's Church.
Just kidding. But it is a vigorous little song, allowing for the challenge of jumping up and spelling quickly! Very fun.
Here is The B-I-B-L-E for second-year piano players:

What are the challenges?
Notice there is just one RH finger replacement, then the rest of the fingering is a piece of cake. The LH, too, stays with a simple I - IV - V chord inversion pattern that is quickly conquered - but notice that the LH pinky dips down to a "B" instead of a "D" in the penultimate measure.
Below is an easy arrangement of this fun song, for beginners who know their way around the Middle C notes:

Notes with letters inside the heads
Here is the easy Middle C version written like music note drawings; each notehead has the letter name inside of it, and the F# is written out instead of hiding in a key signature as in the arrangement above:

Lead sheets too
And the Sunday School songs free downloads of lead sheets, for other instruments or for other keys, for those pianists among you who can interpret chords:
Just plain chords
Now what's this sheet of chords below? It's a simple way for kids who are brand new to solid chords to be able to "play" The B-I-B-L-E" at home for a week or so. This will probably only work for your student if he or she already knows the song!
The child plays the C to F to G chords (it doesn't matter which hand plays the chords - and the notes are really to help YOU, the teacher, understand what I'm saying), using the rhythm of the song's melody.
So easy. It's fun, and I like that it uses the three main chords of the key of C - in order! - which I want students to grasp early on.

There are an incredible amount of people online who just want to be heard, but very few who have given what you have so clearly. Regarding instruction for those of us who can't afford lessons,your site has been a real gift to stumble across. I'm looking forward to now removing a few bad habits. My humblest thanks from Australia.
