Winds of Worship 5

I know that I should bring this Winds of Worship series to an end – I have most definitely flogged the joke to Hades and back already. But I have just a few more offerings, and I still think they’re funny. So what should I do … ?

Post em, I say!

These two inspired songs are the product of my dear friend, the completely lost message (Si. Mate. I will continue to add the additional adverb to your blog name until you make some important additions to your blog links … *gives a stern and pointed look*). Our guest song writer today is obviously deeply impressed by the self-acceptance thrust of many modern worship songs, and I think he wants to express this appreciation through these songs. In fact, he’s so impressed, he’s penned two more of the ‘I’m loved and really an awfully nice and worthy chap etc.’ sort.

The first, I have to admit, makes me want to puke up all over the place. Repeatedly. I’m serious. I’m reaching just thinking about it.

I love the way you hug me
You make me feel so safe
Like a cuddly poodle
Lost in your embrace

Chorus:
'hug me, hug me like a fluffy teddy bear' x 3

I love the way you squeeze me
You make me feel so happy
Like a furry creature
I no longer feel crappy

This second reflects that wonderful clarity of subject so common these days, using so sensitively the method of repetition.

I love the way you love me
I love the way you love me
I love the way you love me
The way you love me, I really love it!

I love the way he loves you (women to the men)
I love the way he loves you (men to the women)
I love the way he loves us (together)
Yes, that’s right he really loves you (priest/leader/vicar)

(The frightening thing is, both of these would have a good chance in some circles.)
