Showertime doggerel

I am Jesus,
This I know;
Suzanne Toolan
Tells me so.

(For you cradle Catlickers, that's sung to the tune "Jesus Loves Me".)

My atheistic father taught me this one as a kid

Jesus Loves me
This I know,
Charleton Heston,
Told me so.

I've got to do more work on these.....

(to your tune)
Thanks, Sister Suzanne.
You've beat th' Navigators.
Thanks to your composing
we've learned John six verbatim. :-)

(to "Aurelia" 7.6.7.6 D)
The music of our people
was captive to Ray Repp.
Permitted four chords only
and sticky syrupy words.
Who would God send to help us
lift up our stucken feet?
Who would expand our rhythms
and help us sing God's praise?

The Lord sent fine deliv'rance
throughout the Catholic world;
the Word of God Commun'ty
and Jebbies in Saint L.
And also many others
who sensed that self-same draw
to open up their Bible
and sing the words they saw.

So now the Catholic People
do sing the Lord's own Word;
they hear His testimony
emit from their own lips.
They contemplate in wonder
the great gift God has giv'n,
to have more verses mem'rized
than all their Prot'stant friends.

Can't beat "Living Water". Her chords are anything but I-V-I! Truly after all these years away from the Cath. Church...when I hear this terrific composition. She is truly a fine composer. You should hear her early Masses.

So much water under the bridge...but when I hear her early works. She is a truly fin composer!
Brava Sister Suzanne Toolan.

Metaphysics is the finding of bad reasons for what we believe upon instinct, but to find these reasons is no less an instinct.
