Dad and Kids Sing Hymn 'Give Me Joy in My Heart' with Ukeleles

“Give me joy in my heart, keep me praising, Give me joy in my heart, I pray; Give me joy in my heart, keep me praising, Keep me praising till the break of day:”

What a wonderful way to praise the Lord as a family! We love this Dad and his young children taking the time to worship together.

Learning a musical instrument is so important to use all the amazing gifts that God has given us. The skill that it takes to learn chord structures, rhythmic patterns, and the “hand-eye coordination” that is involved in playing an instrument are so valuable. Not only does music serve as a stress reliever but it is a great social tool as well. Many families are seeing a resurgence in the ukelele as a portable instrument that is smaller in frame for children to begin their musical training.

What a great way to gather the family in a pastime that they can enjoy for years to come! Seeing these brothers and sister play together with the Dad is so refreshing! It’s clear that they are really enjoying their time together. The littlest is so sweet as she keeps time with her strumming and making sure that she’s playing along with her brothers. It’s adorable seeing her older brother leaning in for their feature “Hallelujah!” cheer in the middle of the verse!

We love how the kids are so involved in the song and what an uplifting message to have running through your heart!
