    We are all tools in the hands of God……or we’re just a bunch of tools, I’m not sure which.

    A grazing maceHow sweet the poundThat flattened a wretch like theeWhose head is flatThat once was roundDone in by my mace and me.Does anyone realize that the words to Amazing Gracecan be sung to the tune of the Theme From Gilligan’s IsleAnd vice-versa?Try it.

    I wonder if they accept Darwin’s theory that they’re descended from monkey wrenches.

    One thing to make it better: the cross on the pulpit should be a crossbar tire iron.

    Pew! Those puns stink! Oops, hope no one puts a hex on me for that! The oil-stained glass is a nice touch.

    That’s why hymnals have a metrical index – you can put words to one and music to another of the same meter and have a cheap and quick anthem arrangement. Of course, little details like tempo and occasionally phrasing need to match too. A good example of a perfect match is singing the Prologue to the Canterbury Tales (in the original) to These Foolish Things Remind Me of You.
