Songs
"Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth. Serve the LORD with gladness; come before Him with joyful singing." Psalm 100:1-2

Singing is a big part of camp. Campers and staff alike can be heard singing around the campfire, walking to and from activities, in the cabins, and outside the dining hall before each meal. We use songs both to have fun and be silly and to worship and learn about God.

Designed by God (Theme Song 1997)
Words & Music by Becky Pummell

Designed by God;
Formed by the very hand that made the earth;
The One who sculpted all the land;
Designed by God, Our Father up above,
Who sent Jesus Christ to show us His great love.

Oh, Lord, we praise You with each and every heart.
Oh, Lord, we love You with each and every part.
Oh, Lord, we thank You; to You alone we sing;
Our Creator, Lord, Redeemer, heav’nly King!

Designed by God, Who put each star in place;
Designed your hands, the smile I see upon your face;
Designed by God to be His very own;
Let His children give Him praise and praise alone.


The Heavens Declare! (Theme Song 1999)
Words & Music by Becky Pummell

The heavens declare the glory of God
And if they do, so then shall I.
His beauty displayed across every sky;
I lift my voice, raise my hands high

To the praise of my King, I’ll forever sing;
He is worthy of all of my praise.
My thanks I will bring, and forever sing
Of His faithfulness, love, and His grace. Oh . . .

The stars twinkle by; the sun rises high;
The moon and the planets, they shine.
The clouds in the sky float silently by,
But even their silence can say, That . . .

To the Maker of all; the great and the small;
The mighty, the strong, and the meek;
To Him I owe, and forever will show
My love, and my gratitude bring. For . . .

TAG: Oh, the heavens declare the glory of God;
And if they do, so then shall I. So shall I!


Seekers of the Truth (Theme Song 2002)
Words & Music by Becky Pummell

Seekers of the Truth – that’s what we are;
Searching for the Truth both near and far;
Choosing Jesus Christ to be our Guide,
We are sure the Truth is on our side!

The clues to life – they can’t be found
Inside a log, or on the ground.
The Truth we need is only found
When we pray and read the Word of God.

Seekers of the Truth – that’s what we are.
Jesus lights our pathway in the dark.
In God’s Word we learn to do what’s right;
Serving Jesus Christ with all our might.

The Truth is good; the Truth is sure.
The Truth will make our lives secure.
The Truth is how to live your life.
We’re Truth Slueths – we follow Jesus Christ!

Seekers of the Truth – that’s you and me.
At Camp Cherith is where we want to be!
Since we’ve found the Truth, it’s plain to see;
When you know the Truth it makes you free!
When you know the Truth He makes you free!

TAG:
Jesus, you’re the Way, the Truth, You are Eternal Life.
I will love You with my heart, and I will serve You with my life.
Forever I will seek your truth; I’ll follow all Your ways.
I will worship You forevermore, for You deserve my praise.
I will worship You forevermore, for You deserve my praise;
Yes, You deserve my praise; only You deserve my praise.
