Gavin Newsom Sneaks Into Grace Community Church At Night To Steal All The Hymnals
Babylon Bee ^ | 08/16/2020

Posted on 08/16/2020 2:14:59 PM PDT by DFG

‘Twas the night before Sunday, when through GCC, No Spirit was stirring, for those gifts had ceased. The hymnals were nestled all snug in their pews, For J-Mac was coming to preach the good news.

Then in crept Ol' Gavin, with loathing and spite To snatch up those hymnals, in the dead of the night. He went one by one, threw each one in his sack From the very first pew, to the one in the back.

Then Newsom he laughed, such a terrible laugh, And said, “This will cut their dumb service in half!” “No worship, no singing, they’ll cry and they’ll scream!” “That will teach them for messing with COVID-19!”

But poor Gavin was shocked, when to his dismay He heard the church singing, the very next day He heard high notes and low notes, horns, violins, For the old folks had memorized all of the hymns.

Wonderful - thanks for posting. And I always click on their site for the original - so they get the hits (and so I see what else I might have missed).

Is this satire? If so, it is almost too believable to be satire?

**No Spirit was stirring, for those gifts had ceased**

The writer must know the Calvinist’s doctrine! (heh)

One thing I love about Grace Community Church is that they still sing traditional hymns and gospel songs.

Baptist DO memorize those great hymns!

I learned them young and I’m a strong alto from listening to my mother!

My husband was Lutheran and has A Mighty Fortress Is Our God committed to memory
