Week 1 - I plan to teach just the chorus and focus on the spiritual aspects of the song.
Week 2 - I plan to teach the verse(s).
Week 3 - will be a review with dynamics.
I'm going to use THIS really cute flip-chart to help with learning the song.
Week 1:
Jr. Lesson:
Mosiah 3:5-8
5)…the Lord…[came] down from heaven…and [went] forth [among]
men, working mighty miracles…
“What kind of miracles do you think he did?”
(Read the following, pausing to ask what each thing means:)
“Some of the things it says he did in the scriptures was:”
5 cont.) …healing the sick, raising the dead, causing the
lame to walk, the blind to receive their sight, and the deaf to hear, and
curing all manner of diseases.
6) And he…cast out devils, or the evil spirits which [were]
in the hearts of the children of men.
7) …he…suffer[ed] temptations, and pain of body, hunger,
thirst, and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, [because they would die from
the pain]…blood [came] from every pore [in his skin], so great [was] his
anguish [because of] the wickedness…of his people.
8) And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the
Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning...
“Because he did all of this, because of the atonement and
His love for us, it means that we can repent
when we do wrong and become clean and good again. That’s one of the big reasons
why we love our Savior and are so grateful for Him.”
John 15:13
Greater love hath
no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
“Do you think it’s pretty WONDERFUL that Jesus Christ did
this for us? Would you be willing to suffer so much and even die for your
friends or family? He must REALLY love us! Let’s learn a song that will help us
tell Him how much we love Him and are grateful for him.”
Learn chorus of “I Stand All Amazed” (Hymns, #193)
Sr. Lesson:
(Basically the same lesson, except have THEM look in the
scriptures for the answers and read word for word Mosiah 3:7-8).
Week 2:
I printed the words of the song really big and will have some strips of paper to cover up some of the words as we sing it over and over to make sure they know those words. As we come across any words that might be hard to understand I'll have the Primary help me define them.
