And a bonus song for those of you who make quilts for needy people.
QUILTING TOGETHER
By Rob K
To the tune of *Showers of Blessing*
Verse 1
We are all quilting together. This is our labor of love.
Bringing relief to our neighbor, serving our Father above. (chorus)
Chorus
Quilting together, quilting is caring in deed!
Quilts for our sisters and brothers. Quilts for God*s people in need.
Verse 2
Use an old dishtowel or bed spread. Things that, no longer, are worn.
Cut blocks then sew them together. That's how a new quilt is born. (chorus)
Verse 3
Most will, of course, be for sleeping. Some will be used as a tent.
Others will serve as a backpack, anything they can invent! (chorus)
Verse 4
They will be used in this country. They will cross over the sea.
Each one will carry the message. Jesus loves you, so do we! (chorus)
Verse 5
So we*ll keep quilting together for we all know when we do
Something that helps other people, Jesus, we*ve done it to you. (chorus)
