When my kids were little I wanted them to sing songs about Jesus.
Not just at church but in our home. I began scouring the internet for new & uplifting children’s Christian songs and decided on a whim to start writing my own music for my children to learn.
My children are now teenagers but I hope & pray that these songs can inspire others to feel the love that Jesus has for us.
Here are 5 songs about Jesus that I’d love to share with you that are perfect for your home, school choirs or church groups.
1-We are Children of God
A simple song to teach children that we are all children of God.
“Heavens not so far, when we know who we are
We are children of God, sent from above
We can be the light, we can show the world His love
We are children of God.”

2- More Jesus
Written with my dear friend Angie Killian . Angie & I had so much fun writing this song & we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.
“More Jesus” is a fun & upbeat song for children to celebrate that we need more Jesus in our lives.
“I Need More Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!
A little more LIGHT
A little more LOVE
A little more HOPE“

3 – Follow Jesus
Inspired by the New Testament Scripture Matthew 4:19-20. “Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. Then they left their nets and followed him.”
“I will follow Jesus
I will walk with Him
I will follow Jesus
I will follow Him”

4- One Prayer Away
Written with Lina Persson. Side note & fun fact – Lina is from Sweden. She is a talented illustrator & probably one of the sweetest humans I’ve ever met.
“One Prayer Away” is a sweet song teaching children about prayer.
“With each new day,
I know He’ll stay
One prayer away”

5- Small & Simple Faith
Written with Angie Killian . Angie is a talented & brilliant songwriter. She has many songs on her website written that are perfect for children’s choirs & church programs.
Small & Simple Faith is a beautiful song that teaches even the littlest ones that even though they are small, they can still follow Jesus and have faith in Him.
“We’re growing in His gospel
And trusting when we pray
We will follow Jesus
With small and simple faith“
& finally BONUS song #6
Coming January 2025 “I’ll Love Like Jesus”
A song to teach children about kindness & loving others like Jesus did. I’m working on this song right now & am excited to share it with all of you in January. (fingers crossed I can get it finished in time)
& Lastly, I promise . . .
