Hakuna Matata

Oh... oh hey.   This is awkward.   It's been a while.   No excuses.  I suck.  My b.  Let's quit the chit chat and get right down to business.   

I'm in a ward.  In college.  This evening we had a Priesthood appreciation dinner and though I'm not part of the Relief Society Presidency, I got emergency roped into writing a song for the dinner.  


Let us share, shall we?  It's to the tune of The Lion King's "Hakuna Matata"



Chorus:
The Priesthood power!  - What a wonderful phrase! 
The Priesthood power!   - Aint no passin’ craze! 
---------
You hold the Lord’s power - for the rest of your days! 
It’s an honorable...... responsibility! 
The priesthood power....

Person 1: When you were a young deacon - 
Person 2: When you were a young deacooooon!!! 

Person 3: We found your aroma lacked a certain appeal
                  You could clear the chapel after every ordeal

Person 4: You’re a sensitive soul - though you seem thick-skinned
                 But now, we can call you Whenever! - on a whim!!!
Everyone: And ohh the blessings -- Presidency: oh what’s in a blessing?
Everyone: We praise the Lord’s name -- Presidency: Oh what’s in a name?
Everyone: When we need some comfort -- Presidency: What did ya feel???
.............
THE PRIESTHOOD POWER!   - What a wonderful phrase! 
The Priesthood power!  - Ain’t no passin’ craze! 
------
You hold the Lord’s power - for the rest of your days! 
It’s an honorable...... responsibility! 
The Priesthood power! 

Whisper:
The Priesthood - the power,  The Priesthood - the power,
The Priesthood - the power, The Priesthood - the power,
 The Priesthood - the power, The Priesthood - the power,
The Priesthood...

You hold the Lord’s power - for the rest of your days! 
It’s an honorable...... responsibility! 
The priesthood poweeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr....


Yup.  It was cute, it was fun, it was written in half an hour.
