The Bishop's Song

Now that the Episcopal organization (no longer a Christian Church) has approved and published "The Witnessing and Blessing of a Lifelong Covenant: Liturgical Resources for Blessing Same-Gender Relationships" (Read it for yourself), several of us thought that this "liturgical resource" needs some really good music.

I couldn't resist the challenge. Here is my first crack at it:

The Bishop's Song by Wallace Hartley 07/13/2012
I bless you.

You bless me.

We're a happy family.

With a great big hug,

And a kiss from me to you,

Won't you say you bless me too?


I bless you.

You bless me.

We are friends like friends should be.

With a great big hug,

And a kiss from me to you,

Won't you say you bless me too? (Sung to the tune of the Barney Song)

Something about the purple outfit worn by the character in the video below seems appropriate for Episcopal bishops to consider as vestments to wear when they go out into the world evangelizing their new religion.
