OK, I'll post again.

This is too cool not to tell anyone, and I'm not real sure anybody over here can completely understand it. So, here ya go, world.

I wanna tell you about what an amazing God I know. I went to the orphanage in Masan today, like every Saturday, and I brought some materials to make crafts. I wanted the kids to make nametags so I could start learning their names.

I also decided I could teach them "Jesus Loves Me," the Sunday school song, and try to kind of make the connection between the "me" in the song and the name on their nametags. I looked up the song on Google to get the Korean version, so maybe I could teach them that as well. I figured maybe then they'd have a song they understood in their native language as well as in English. But then I realized that I don't have a printer, and I didn't have time to copy down the words by hand, so I figured I'd save it for another day.

These kids rock, as I've said before, and after we reviewed some of our lessons from before (numbers, relatives, colors) I introduced the song. First, I had them read the words off the board. Then, I tried teaching them the tune --

They heard me singing the chorus, "Yes, Jesus loves me," and recognized the tune immediately. Right away, in unison, this whole room of Korean kids starts singing the Korean language version of "Jesus Loves Me." At the top of their lungs. All ages -- tiny 3-year-olds and preteens, screaming these lyrics:

예수 사랑하심은 거룩하신 말일세
우리들은 약하나 예수 권세 많도다
날 사랑하심 날 사랑하심
날 사랑하심 성경에 써있네

Yesu saranghashimun
Garuk hashik marilse
Woolideuleun yakhana
Yesu kwanse mandoda

Nal saranghashim
Nal saranghashim
Nal saranghashim
Seonkyun-e seo-it ne

My romanization is terrible, but at least you can get an idea of what it sounded like. The chorus literally says, "He loves me, He loves me, He loves me, it's in the Bible, yes."

Here's group of kids on the other side of the world. They're far from their families -- the ones that have families at all. They don't have TV or video games or expensive schools and tutors to teach them. But they know Jesus loves them, and they know it sure enough to yell it for the whole world to hear.

Think about that, and how big and awesome and loving God is. Then remember that Jesus loves you, too.
