To Think About Jesus (second verse)

I'm going to continue on with the sign language for the 2nd verse. I will re-post everything from verse one and then add on with verse two.

Prep:
1. Bring 3 pictures found in the GAK (Gospel Art Kit):
The Ten Lepers GAK 221 (there's no image online for copyright purposes I suppose)
Christ and the Children GAK 216
Passing the Sacrament GAK 604 (the photo I have is of a young family with kids (pg 108) but this online version would work I suppose)

2. Learn how to sign these key words (in addition to some in the first verse as there are a lot of repeats):
miles
walked
dust
helped
love
tall
seat
listen
quiet
feet

Use THIS online ASL Dictionary link (to search for the actual word, click on the letter it starts with under "Main Dictionary" and then scroll down under "Choices" to find it)

3. Here are my notes for the 2nd verse:

Think - left hand circles temple but doesn't touch it

Miles - hold out right arm, drag 3 fingers from left hand up right arm starting at wrist and ending at upper arm

Walked - hands at chest level, palms down, swing hands front and back similar to walking
