Educational and fun, this collection recognizes that we experience our past and present through our music.

Its offerings, useful for schools, catechesis, or gatherings, include biblical Israeli dances as well as international dances that use different scales and modalities.

The book encourages music and physical education and suggests ties to other subjects such as geography and history.

The songbook provides keyboard and guitar accompaniments as well as voicing and parts for C instrument for each of the songs.

Hi God Gestures, Volume 2 comes with an audio CD of all the songs, making it easy to bring music to life and get children moving! Signs and gestures for songs kids know and love are clearly captured in the gesture book with photographs and detailed explanations for each motion. Assembly versions of each song are included in the book—accompaniments for the songs are available in previously released Hi God songbooks and/or octavos.

The music includes delightful and fun songs like "I Know That God Loves Me" and "Peter and James and John" and quietly prayerful songs like "At the Center of My Heart," "I Believe in the Sun" and "Sing a Simple Song." The gestures, signs, mime and motions flow freely from the music and reflect not only the words, but the piece's entire mood!
