From the recordings "Joy'n the Family" album download, "Joy'n the Family" (2010), and Village Church Gurnee
designed to "open" your Worship Time. It's upbeat, funky, and the motions get the kids interacting with one another.

welcome you – welcome me
we are here together as a family, i say
welcome you, you say welcome me
we’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
we’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
Let’s make sure every boy is here (boys yell)
Let’s make sure every boy is here
We’ve got to make sure every girl is here (girls yell)
We’ve got to make sure every girl is here
welcome you – welcome me
we are here together as a family, i say
welcome you, you say welcome me
We’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
We’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
let’s make sure every boy is here (boys yell)
let’s make sure every boy is here
we’ve got to make sure every girl is here (girls yell)
we’ve got to make sure every girl is here
welcome you – welcome me
we are here together as a family, i say
welcome you, you say welcome me
we’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
we’re brothers and we’re sisters in God’s family
side by side, unified – Jesus will be glorified…

"Welcome You" was designed to "open" your Worship Time. It's upbeat, funky, and the motions get the kids interacting with one another.
MUSICAL STYLE/SOUND: Jazzy-pop. Funky drums and bass, with syncopated guitar and electric piano. A very fun, playful lead vocal and background vocal harmonies. A chance to holler and grunt right off the bat!
IF YOU’RE TEACHING:
- Welcome
- Respect
- Unity/Togetherness
- Book of Ephesians [Unity in the Body of Christ]
- The glory of Christ when we worship him
KEY LYRIC: "Let's make sure every boy is here...ungh - ungh - ungh - YEAH!"
LITTLE KNOWN FACT: The keyboard player did all his work virtually [via computer] - he and Rob never saw each other in person!
