Here is my (NOW EDITED) attempt at a kids song for the ascension.
It views the ascension first from heaven (Psalm 24 perspective) and then from earth (Acts 1 perspective).
FROM HEAVEN:
Here He comes - Here He comes
Open up - Open up
It’s the King - It’s the King of Glory
Who is He? Who is He?
This King - This King
It’s the LORD - It’s the LORD, King Jesus
And He sits on the throne
At God’s right Hand
Our Friend, our Brother, our King
Rising up, Rising up
Lifting us, Lifting us
To our God, carried up in Jesus.
FROM EARTH:
Up He goes – Up He goes
From the earth - From the earth
To highest throne in heaven
Open up - Open up
To our King - To our King
He’s our LORD - He’s our LORD, King Jesus
And He sits on the throne
At God’s right Hand
Our Friend, our Brother, our King
Rising up, Rising up
Lifting us, Lifting us
To our God, carried up in Jesus.
And He sits on the throne
At God’s right Hand
My Friend, My Brother, My King
Rising up, Rising up
Lifting us, Lifting us
To our God, carried up in Jesus.

I like it! I will sing it as I celebrate a newly discovered Ascension Day. Please forgive me for not knowing - was raised a Atheistic-Baptismo-Buddhist.
Hey Missy,
Atheistic-Baptismo-Buddhist? So did you grow up singing to the nogod into whom you hoped to dissolve in the baptistry?
No, we sang "Leaving on a Jetplane"
Hahaha! I think that might be an ascension song.
"...don't know when He'll be back again..."

There are specific breeds lower susceotible
to chocolate however never give your dog chocolate by choice.
In oolder dogs iit is probably one oof thhe leading causes of death.
Somehow having thheir own space eases thee separation anxiety that most dogs experience.
