We'll all pray together


Jolly praying weather,
And a Vatican II breeze,
Faith on the edge,
Shade off the knees,
Pray, pray together,
With your bodies between your knees,
Pray, pray together,
With your bodies between your knees.
2.
Trads may be more clever,
Charismatics may make more row,
But we'll sink for ever,
Steady from stroke to bow,
And nothing in life shall sever,
The chain that is round us now,
And nothing in life shall sever,
The chain that is round us now.
3.
Catholics will fill our places,
Dressed in the old vestments,
We'll recollect our religions,
We'll to the Faith be untrue,
And age will be still in our faces,
When we cheer for an interreligious crew,
And age will be still in our faces,
When we cheer for an interreligious crew.
4.
Twenty years hence this weather,
May blow us from our office stools,
We may be slow on the prayer,
And be to the boys old fools,
But we'll still pray together,
And swear by all of Vatican II,
But we'll still pray together,

My apologies to the second best non-Catholic school in the country for my ruthless changing of the words of the Eton Boating Song.

Didn't you know? All men are going to heaven, even many Catholic Bishops are going to heaven.

I like how they are putting their hands in, I mean, what are they going to do, "One, two, three, HEAVEN!"
