This is the sixteenth 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.

Full Moon Rises, Huge and Bright.
Homeschool Song No 16
Full moon rises, huge and bright,
in the East, a glorious sight.
Chorus
God made wonders and what’s more,
science helps them be explored.
Then the moon looks smaller, high,
as it moves across the sky.
Chorus
There’s no doubt that this seems strange,
for its distance does not change.
Chorus
Why the difference to our sight,
it’s a puzzle and delight.
Chorus
We have brains to think this through,
gift of God to me and you.
Chorus
Note: The sun shows the same effect when it rises in the East and both sun and full moon look large when they set, too.
