Gather Us In is supposed to be a Catholic song written by a gentleman named Marty Haugen. Alot of conservative Catholics are up in arms about his music being used in the liturgy because his music is so untraditional and and new-agey.

In middle school, when we were forced to sing this for choir non-stop, we changed the words so that it was "I am a D, I am a D-R, I am a D-R-O-M-E-D-A-R-Y, and I have one enormous H-U-M-P on my B-A-C-K, and I will G-U-L-P I-M-M-E-N-S-E-L-Y"

That's very impressive that you could spell dromedary in grade school. 90% of the people at my HIGHSCHOOL wouldn't know what a dromedary was. :kitten:

Just a closer walk with thee
Grant it Jesus is my plea
Keep me walking close to thee
Let it be, Dear lord, let it be.

My grandma sang that and played the guitar. :D:

The Lord's been good to me,
and so I thank the Lord,
for giving me,
the things I need,
the sun and the rain and the apple seed.
Amen, amen, amen amen amen amen.

-Boy scout grace before meals.

That's from the Disney movie about Johnny Appleseed.

The Boy Scouts use it as a grace. There's another one about hiking or something, but I forget how it goes.

Girl Scouts had an Adam's Family grace...it was pretty bad..something like this...

Da, da, da, dnt (snap, snap)
Da, da, da, dnt (snap, snap)
Da, da, da, dnt, Da, da, da, dnt, Da, da, da, dnt (snap, snap)
We thank thee Lord for giving,
This food we need for living.
So Bless us while we eat it,
Because we really need it.

Aaa aaa aaa men (snap snap)
Aaa aaa aaa men (snap snap)
Aaa aaa aaa men (snap snap)

My daughter asked me today if she could be a Brownie. I told her she was too old-- that she'd be a Girl Scout. She asked if she could be a girl scout. I said no.
