Southern Singing

Carter goes to a non-denominational Christian preschool, and comes home singing all kinds of Bible Belt songs. It's pretty cute! So here's one for your enjoyment:
If you're wondering what exactly what he's saying, here are the words: "Do Lord, oh do Lord, oh do remember me. Do Lord, oh do Lord, oh do remember me. Do Lord, oh do Lord, oh do remember me. Look away, beyond the blue. I take Jesus as my Savior, you take him, too. I take Jesus as my Savior, you take him, too. I take Jesus as my Savior, you take him, too. Look away, beyond the blue." We've all been humming this all day as well. And he loves to pretend he's reading his Book of Mormon and singing at the same time (he calls the BOM his Bible Scriptures and loves to bring it to preschool to show his non-Mormon teachers). And our favorite part is how he really "twangs" the "take" in "you take him, too."

Wow, what is it about this song. This song is now sung in the Law household frequently. I really can't get the " you take him too" part out of my mind. We just sing it and laugh. Thanks Carter!
