We are Space Probe Astronauts
Flying on a mission for the Son
In the Spirit’s holy power
Expressing faith through love to everyone
Telling them of Jesus’ life
His death and resurrection and His love
And of life that never ends
Given out of grace from up above
Where He leads we bravely go
Blazing into the dark stormy night
What He asks we gladly give
We lay down our lives
We fight the good fight
We are Space Probe Astronauts
We are Space Probe Astronauts
We are Space Probe Astronauts
We are Space Probe Astronauts
Composed by M. Bryant
COUNTDOWN
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, – Blastoff!
Somewhere in outer space
God has prepared a place
For those who trust Him and obey
Jesus will come again
Although we don’t know when
The countdown’s getting closer everyday
10 & 9, 8 & 7, 6 & 5 & 4 -
Call upon the Savior while you may
3 & 2 – Coming through the clouds in bright array
The countdown’s getting closer everyday
The countdown’s getting closer everyday
The countdown’s getting closer everyday
THE HEAVENS DECLARE (Psalm 19)
The heavens declare the glory of God
The skies proclaim the work of his hands
Day after day they pour forth speech
Night after night, their knowledge display
There is no speech – no speech or language
Where they cannot – cannot be heard
Their voice goes out – out into all the earth
And their words to the end of the world
Composed by Audrey Reeves, 2010
KEEP LOOKING UP
Keep looking up to Christ our Savior
Keep looking up to Christ our Lord
Keep looking up – He reigns in glory
Keep looking up to the Lord When we look around all we see are problems
People with a heavy load
When we look to Jesus we see His glory
Shining on the narrow road
We can never see
What the future will be, so….
Keep looking up to Christ our Savior
Keep looking up to Christ our Lord
Keep looking up – He reigns in glory
Keep looking up to the Lord
Jesus is the one who’s gone up to heaven
For us to prepare a place
And when He returns to complete His mission
We will see Him face to face
We will someday see
Jesus’ victory, so…
Keep looking up to Christ our Savior
Keep looking up to Christ our Lord
Keep looking up – He reigns in glory
Keep looking up to the Lord
Composed by James Ward, verse 2 by M. Bryant
GOD OF WONDERS
Lord of all creation / Of water, earth, & sky
The heavens are Your tabernacle / Glory to the Lord on high
God of wonders beyond our galaxy / You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty / You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven & earth (Lord of heaven & earth)
Lord of heaven & earth (Lord of heaven & earth)
Early in the morning I will celebrate the light
When I stumble in the darkness I will call You name by night
Hallelujah to the Lord of heaven & earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of heaven & earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of heaven & earth
God of wonders beyond our galaxy / You are holy, holy
Precious Lord, reveal Your heart to me / You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven & earth (Lord of heaven & earth)
Lord of heaven & earth (Lord of heaven & earth)
“God Of Wonders” Composed by Marc Byrd and Steve Hindalong Copyright 2000

BECAUSE HE LIVES
God sent His Son. They called Him Jesus.
He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon.
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.
Because He I can face tomorrow;
Because He lives all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives
Composed by Gloria and Bill Gaither, 1971
MY GOD IS SO BIG
My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There’s nothing my God cannot do!
My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There’s nothing my God cannot do!
The mountains are His, the rivers are His,
The stars are His handiwork, too.
My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There’s nothing my God cannot do – For YOU!

THE PAPAYA SONG
I like bananas (doo, doo, doo)
I know that mangoes are sweet
I like papayas (PAPAYAS?)
But nothing can beat the sweet love of God
(doo, doo, doo… doo, doo, doo…doo, doo, doo)
I was walking ‘round in circles — five miles an hour
Tryin’ to find my way back to the Heavenly Father
The world tasted sweet, but soon it turned sour
And then I trusted the Lord and received His power (1,2,3!)
I like bananas (doo, doo, doo)
I know that mangoes are sweet
I like papayas (PAPAYAS?)
But nothing can beat the sweet love of God
(doo, doo, doo… doo, doo, doo…doo, doo, doo)
You can search for the tropics to find a fruit that’s new
You can swim in the ocean, until your face turns blue
But look no further, I’ll tell you what to do
Just open up your bible to Galatians 5:22
I like bananas (doo, doo, doo)
I know that mangoes are sweet
I like papayas (PAPAYAS?)
But nothing can beat the sweet love of God
(doo, doo, doo… doo, doo, doo…doo, doo, doo)
The fruit of the spirit, from love to self-control,
If you plant it in your heart it’ll strengthen your soul,
So guard your fruit for also we are told,
That your fruit will rot if it’s left out in the cold (1,2,3!)
I like bananas (doo, doo, doo)
I know that mangoes are sweet
I like papayas (PAPAYAS?)
But nothing can beat the sweet love of God
(doo, doo, doo… doo, doo, doo…doo, doo, doo)
WHEN I GROW UP
When I grow up all I want to be is just to be like Jesus.
When I grow up all I want to do is all He wants me to do.
I will love Him. I will Love Him.
I will love Him and my neighbor as myself
When I grow up all I want to be is just to be like Jesus.
When I grow up all I want to do is all He wants me to do.
Composed by M. Bryant
