It’s All About God’s Grace
In what is becoming an annual tradition, my family helped me create another Easter video over spring break this year. We call this one “All about God’s Grace.” (You can watch last year’s video here.)
This year’s video is a cover of Meghan Trainor’s catchy song, “All About That Bass” — but with lyrics I don’t mind my little ones singing around the house.
Take a look, and let us know what you think. You’ll find the new words (along with Scriptural supports) printed below.
Best wishes for a blessed Holy Week. It really IS about the magnificent grace of our heavenly Father… and we pray He will lavish that grace upon you!
It’s All About God’s Grace
You’ve got to know it’s all about God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — know your Bible.
It’s all ’bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — it’s in the Bible.
It’s all ’bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — read your Bible.
It’s all ’bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace.
Yeah it’s pretty clear, this world is full of sin (Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 3:23)
But Jesus stands a knockin’ for you to let Him in. (Revelations 3:20)
Can’t get to Heaven any other way — (John 14:6; Acts 4:12)
It’s all by grace and all through faith. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
My Jesus came to earth; Your ransom did He pay (Matthew 20:28; Galatians 1:4)
To call you out of darkness into the light of day. (John 3:19; 8:12; 12:46
Now God is working in you — and He won’t stop (Philippians 2:13; Philippians 1:6)
’Till every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. (James 1:4; John 17:23)
Yeah, my Jesus He told me, Don’t worry about your life, (Matthew 6:25)
Just rejoice and be glad even when you encounter strife. (Matthew 5:12; James 1:2)
You know God dresses the lilies and feeds all the sparrows, too. (Luke 12:27-28; Matthew 6:26)
In the same way your Heavenly Father will care for you. (Philippians 4:19; 2 Corinthians 9:8)
Because you know it’s all about God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — know your Bible.
It’s all ’bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — it’s in the Bible.
It’s all ’bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace — read your Bible.
It’s all ‘bout God’s grace, ’bout God’s grace.
But Christ will soon be back. (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16)
Go ahead, He tells us, be expecting that — (1 Peter 1:13; Luke 12:35-36)
And keep on praying. Spread the welcome mat. (1 Thessalonians 5:17; Hebrews 10:25)
‘Cause I’m here to tell you, (Mark 16:15; Acts 5:32)
Everyone should trust in Jesus, ‘cause His love will never stop. (Romans 10:9; Romans 8:35, 38-39)
Yeah, my Jesus, He died on the cross ‘cause of all our sin, (Romans 5:8; 1 John 4:10)
But He didn’t stay dead — no, He came back to life again. (Matthew 28:6; Acts 2:32)
And NOW He’s in Heaven (Mark 16:18; Colossians 3:1)
Preparing a place for me (John 14:3; Psalm 23:5-6)
and building the mansion you’ll live in eternally. (John 14:2; 2 Corinthians 5:1)

Watch More of our Music Videos
As I mentioned before, this isn’t the first music video our family has made for Easter. If you like this one, be sure to watch the others, as well:
- Let Them Know – shares the good new of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (with a little help from Disney)
- Never Enough – nothing can sever God’s love for us, which He demonstrated by sending Jesus to die on our behalf
And if you are really a glutton for punishment, you may enjoy our music videos on other topics, as well
- Do You Wanna Have a Baby? – this has long been a theme song at our house 😂
- I’m Just a Mom Who Can’t Say No – not true, but a recipe for disaster and burnout if it were!
- Sunrise, Sunset – one of my favorite wedding songs, with updated lyrics
- Life with You Is Awesome – this is what I tell my husband all the time
- I Homeschool – I recorded this one after COVID hit (as if we didn’t already have enough good reasons to teach our kids at home)

Hey Jennifer…I am following your blog from Kenya…I loooove the video!! it sure is catchy and i love the scriptural references too! Good job on raising 12 God Fearing children! you are my hero!!!!
Thank you for your kind words. We’ve been getting a lot of traffic from Kenya lately. A hearty welcome to you and your countrymen! I’m so glad you’re here. Blessings, Jennifer
Your video is unbelievably cute and catchy! I love the scriptures, the truth and seeing your whole family…you did a terrific job!
Thanks so much, Wendy. We appreciate the encouragement!
I loved this. The lyrics were really great, and God has been dealing with me about grace for a few weeks now so it was right on time!
Thanks!
Dear Jennifer,
I really enjoy your blog.. However, I felt compelled to share with you some shocking evidence about Easter. My family recently discovered some disturbing things about the traditions we’ve inherited as “Christians”, that have made us turn from pretty much every popular holiday and we are now ONLY celebrating biblical holy days (passover, the first and last day of the feast of unleavened bread, the day of the Pentecost, the feasts of trumpets, the day of atonement, the feast of Tabernacles, and the last great day.) I left the links to a minimum, so that if you choose to look into it I’ve provided information to start with. It’s very sad to see lies being handed down for generations and anyone who does find out these terrible truths and how far we’re all drifting from the actual True Word of God, they are too worried about giving up their “fun holidays” or others call them crazy. So I hope you will look into this for yourself!
Thank you for all that you do. Love your sister in Jesus, Kendra

Thanks for writing, Kendra. I respect your position. I normally differentiate between “Easter” and “Resurrection Sunday,” but wasn’t very careful about my word choice this time. I’m sorry. As you can tell in the video, the song is really about Jesus’ death and resurrection, which is something worth celebrating every day of the year, whether you make a big deal of this holiday weekend or not. 🙂
Sorry I didn’t really comment about your sweet video! I really thought the lyrics were a clever switch ;)… Please take time to look into the things I sent, as well.
Thank you for the quick response and have a great weekend! <3
