I’m in Pennsylvania with a group of a dozen and a half of my son’s friends who have got together to go to a special mass where one of their number is about to become a consecrated virgin in the Church. ( I’ll post the livestream tomorrow)
During my conversation with a young man named Josh concerning music we were joking and on the fly I came up with a few lines for this song just before I got to sleep.
So of course when I woke up the morning of the mass while all the 20 & 30 somethings were still snoozing after a long night with this still in my head, of course I found myself writing the rest of this.
Sung to the tune of Disney’s: Under the Sea
🎵 The vibe it seem always greener
In somebody else’s faith
You think about joining up there
But that’s just a big mistake
Just look at the faith around you
At Peter’s churches door
The fruits of the Spirit surround you
What more is you looking for? 🎵
🎵 Under Rome’s See
Under Rome’s See
Don’t be departing
What Jesus got started
Take it from me
While other churches broke away
We’ve got 2000 years of faith
We’re still devotin’
Rosaries totin’
Under Rome See 🎵
🎵 Right here we are in Christ presence
As daily to Mass we stroll
Our brothers they seek Christ elsewhere
But where else could they all go
The tabernacle is up there
The Body of Christ enclosed
If you’re spiritually hungry
He’s right there at Mass you know
Let’s Go! 🎵
🎵 Under Rome’s See
Under Rome’s See
Years they did beat us
Fry us and kill us
Martyrs to be
For centuries they did say
Rome it is all dying away
We still survive us
The Lord to guide us
Under Rome’s See
Under Rome’s See 🎵
🎵Under Rome’s See
Under Rome’s See
Faith life is sweet here
We got them beat here
Sacramentally
And if the Devil’s in our way
There’s Mary and all the Saints
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under Rome’s See 🎵
🎵 St. Gertrude the great
Aquinas so smart
St. Margaret Mary
Loved the Sacred Heart
St. Francis and Clare
Took Christ everywhere
St. Augustine of Hippo!
St. Dismas came first
Tom More had no fear
Xavier went abroad
St. Therese stayed here
St. Carlo Acutis
He speaks to the youth
And, St. Padre Pio whoa! 🎵
🎵 Under Rome’s See
Under Rome’s See
When absolution
The Priest gives it to us
It’s music to me
Magisterium in da hand
Our foundation is not of sand 🎵
🎵 Each Adoration Christ comes to clam us
Under Rome’s See
Every communion Jesus comes to us
Under Rome’s See
Each Priestly blessing, Each chaplet said here
Bring us much closer in our devotion
Yeah, we in luck here
God’s with us all here
Under Rome’s See 🎵
Update: I thought I was still in draft mode when I had included the livestream of the consecration and then decided to make that a separate post. I didn’t realize that it had already been posted till after I made the change. The livestream and the video I shot at Brother Andre’s cafe will go up tomorrow.
