This is the seventeenth 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.

Ride Away
Homeschool Song No 17
A good way to travel is jump on a bike,
Ride away, ride away, ride away:
You’ll get places faster than if you had hiked,
Ride away, ride away, ride away.
Through God’s creation, trees, rivers and streams,
in parkland or forest it can be a dream
as the air fills your lungs
and you feel the wind stream.
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Chorus
Thank you God for our world and how our bodies work:
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Brake!
Thank you God for our world and how our bodies work:
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Brake!
Remember your helmet to keep your brain safe,
Ride away, ride away, ride away:
God gave it, it’s precious, brains can’t be replaced.
Ride away, ride away, ride away:
It makes all things work from your toes to your eyes,
your thinking and feeling all on it rely;
so always be careful,
and guard it for life.
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Chorus
A bike uses energy drawn from our food
Ride away, ride away, ride away:
It’s good for God’s planet and good for you too!
Ride away, ride away, ride away
There’s so much around as you travel along,
the plants and the animals, birds singing songs,
enjoy all your cycling
let it be life-long
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Chorus
Thank you God for our world and how our bodies work:
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Brake!
Thank you God for our world and how our bodies work:
Ride away, ride away, ride away,
Brake!
