Churchy: "Church in the Magical Forest."

"Church in the Magical Forest"
written by Brian Jennings


Once upon a time
in a magical forest
Along came a priest
with a beautiful chorus

He wasn't fancy or eloquent
but had a simple call
You are not alone
in this world after all

He told all the creatures
about a God full of love
And soon all the people
set their minds on above

They pillaged & plundered
& breathed fire no more
And when their neighbors came by
they opened the door

It was a wonderful time
in the forest that year
For peace and joy
had replaced all their fear

They built a church building
all pretty and new
And designed a new bench
they called it a pew

They had lovely potlucks
& put art on the walls
They had sermons & songs
& pastoral calls

They designed a nice stage
with a pulpit of their own
And they purchased a wireless
lapel microphone

The stuff that they did
was all good and well
But their passion in life
it became hard to tell

Their friends noticed first
things weren't quite the same
They spoke more of church stuff
and less of God's fame

When it came time to paint
the old church bus
They fought over the color
it caused such a fuss

And some wondered if
they even remembered the call
If their building burned down
would they have anything left at all
