This is the fourth song written for primary age children so they can be encouraged to think about science as part of God’s creation and to look at how the sciences can help us understand the glory of that creation.
The songs are easy to learn and easy to sing because most of them have tunes that will be recognised. The scientific basis has been checked by well-qualified scientists to give anyone who uses them confidence. We hope you will enjoy the songs. If you should feel daunted by the possibility of being asked questions you can’t answer, you may find Keynotes and FAQs helpful
If you enjoy this song, please pass it to other parents, teachers, youth leaders, carers you feel might also find it helpful.

Sing of God and Science: Song No 4
Hot Clear Steam (Tune: Hot Cross Buns).

Hot Clear Steam (Tune: Hot Cross Buns).
Hot, clear steam: hot, clear steam,
When it cools it turns into
A water stream.
If it keeps on cooling,
It will turn to ice.
So as steam cools down and down,
It changes twice.
Butterflies, flutter by,
Caterpillars, chrysalids
until they fly: RE: Words for Hot Clear Steam and The Bible Starts with Awesome Tale
Eggs to caterpillars
Which in time pupate,
Then emerge with gorgeous wings
As they change state.
Toads and frogs, start as spawn,
Tadpoles soon grow breathing gills
As they change form;
Then as they develop,
Tails will disappear,
Legs grow strong to swim and jump
In pond or air.
All of these, help us see,
How the God who loves us can
Be one-in-three:
It’s not quite the same,
But can help to make a start;
Thinking how three different forms
Are one at heart.
Father, Son, Spirit come,
never changing, everlasting
Three-in-one.
God our great Creator,
Jesus, Lord and King,
With the Spirit loves and cares
For everything.
