The Updated Church

The following attempt at humor was presented to me today. You will enjoy.

The Updated Church (author unknown)

Latin's gone
Peace is too,
Singin' and Shoutin'
From every pew.

Altar's turned around
Priest is too,
Commentator's yellin'
Page Twenty-two.

Communion rail's goin'
Stand up straight
Kneelin' suddenly
Went otta date.

Processions are formin'
In every aisle
Salvation's organized
Single file.

Rosary's out
Psalms are in
Hardly ever hear
A word against sin.

Listen to the leader
Hear how he reads
Please stop rattlin'
Them rosary beads.

Padre's lookin' puzzled
Doesn't know his part
Used to know the whole deal
In Latin by heart.

I hope all changes
Are just about done,
And that they don't drop BINGO
Before I've won!
