This is the tenth 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 10
Iron Down Below
Chorus to start
Iron, Iron, Iron down below,
We dig it up
From earth’s great crust;
It’s mined from below.
How came iron?
Did the Maker’s mind
Forsee this element could ease
The lives of humankind?
Chorus
Iron’s very common,
Can be very strong;
Been used for making pots and tools
For many ages long.
Chorus
Iron fused with carbon
Turns into steel,
For nails to girders,
pins to pipes: Steel’s ideal.
Chorus
Iron’s in our bodies,
Iron’s in our blood
It’s vital we eat food with iron,
To help our health stay good
Chorus
