Before we get to twenty-thirty



‘Laity and clergy’

Is just ‘absurdy’

Sermons all get

Far too wordy

All our goals

End up too worldly

They make the church

A hurdy-girdy


Father we’re so

Dry and thirsty

By your blood

We all are worthy

Before we get to

Twenty-thirty

Pour on us

You grace and mercy!


‘Laity and clergy’

Pointless journey

Spoken words

Go weird and burbly

Turn the cream

All sour and curdly

They make the church

Go topsy-turvy


Father we’re so

Dry and thirsty

By your blood

We all are worthy

Before we get to

Twenty-thirty

Pour on us

You grace and mercy!


Religion makes

Our vision blurry

Controlling spirits

Make me squirmy

Being a laity

You’ve never told me

And I’ve no desire

To be a clergy !!


Father we’re so

Dry and thirsty

By your blood

We all are worthy

Before we get to

Twenty-thirty

Pour on us

You grace and mercy!


Masks and rituals

Just unnerve me

Holy seasons

Maundy Thurs-dee

I can’t see that

Laity or clergy

Has being a part

Of my Jesus journey!!


Father we’re so

Dry and thirsty

By your blood

We all are worthy

Before we get to

Twenty-thirty

Pour on us

You grace and mercy!


Roads are smooth

Or roads are jerky

The only thing

That would deter me

Is if the lesser

Were classed as laity

And all the better

Were revered as clergy !


Father we’re so

Dry and thirsty

By your blood

We all are worthy

Before we get to

Twenty-thirty

Pour on us

You grace and mercy!
