I'm posting a song a day from the Rise Up Singing songbook, which you may or may not know. It's a pretty invaluable resource for song leaders, and useful for anyone who likes to sing in groups. The book doesn't include the melodies to the songs, just the lyrics and some chords, so I’m trying hard to find the tunes I don’t know, learn them, and post them on YouTube for anyone to learn. That’s where these videos are hosted; the blog is just pretty packaging.

Little Arabella Miller found a woolly caterpillar
First it crawled upon her mother, then upon her baby brother
All said, "Arabella Miller! Take away that caterpillar!"
Twinkle, twinkle little star. How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are!
