This is the twenty-second 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 9
Vib-gy-or, Vibgyor.
Vib-gy-or, Vib-gy-or helps us memorise
All the brilliant colours of rainbows in the sky,
When the sun’s rays shine through
Rain both hard and light
Hurrah! The colours all appear in bows that bring delight
Chant (for half a class)
Violet, Indigo, blue and green,
Yellow and orange and red
These are the colours always seen
When light is re-fract-ed.
Vib-gy-or, Vib-gy-or helps recall with fun
All the brilliant colours in spiders’ webs in sun:
When the sun’s rays shine through
Gossamer so fine,
Hurrah! The colours all appear along their slender lines.
Chant (for half a class)
Vib-gy-or, Vib-gy-or helps us memorise
All the brilliant colours in bubbles rising high:
When the sun’s rays shine through
Soap and water spheres:
Hurrah! The colours swirl around the short-lived surface clear.
Chant (for half a class)
