Hair-Raising?

to the tune of the humpty dumpty nursery rhyme:-

Humpty trumpty promised a wall
told us mexico would pay for it all
but with all of his lies
now all of his men
won\'t let trump be president again.

Like I said before, I love it when ya deviate ..
This is a fine poem devoted (a great pun that and wholly intentional) to a deplorable, dark and devious orange narcissist .. fortunately the rarest of the bunch and all round bad egg ....

orchidee said:

Maybe it\'s a novelty, electing \'celebrities\' to positions of power?
But KP has applied to be PM. There\'s no stopping her, ya know.
She also applied for \'President of The Old Trout Club\', Nothing to do with fishing though. They appointed her immediately! lol.

Robert Southwick Richmond said:

You\'d think I\'d remember having sung a tune called RICHMOND, but I didn\'t, at least not till i heard it. I can sing your words to it, though.

Typo, line 3: I suppose you meant \'say\'.

I hear there are those who believe a vanguard is either a security officer or a modified front n rear bumper set ....

and if my memory serves correctly, there were 501 Levites ........

All joking aside, you are without any doubt Steven, the most prolific scriber of hymn-poems I am likely ever to encounter .......... write on ..

Revelation - Seal Five
orchidee said:

There are seven seals in all. The first four fitted into one poem. There is more detail given for the other seals - number five here; numbers six and seven to follow.

I can sing this, to the shape-note tune STAR IN THE EAST (Southern Harmony, Christian Harmony 2010, Episcopal hymnal; not in Sacred Harp), but I can find three other tunes to which the text is sometimes set, two of them in Hymns Ancient & Modern Revised. All of them count it 11.10.11.10. Which tune are you singing it to?

If I could penetrate into your head and heart, I would see what else is hidden there, that which is not revealed unto poetry, I would enjoy more of the praise you give silently unto Christ.
Well put down Orchie

Saviour-Seeking
Robert Southwick Richmond said:

I can sing this one pretty easily. Tune IN DULCI JUBILO, with a macaronic German-and-Latin text. English words by the great Anglican hymnographer John Mason Neale, originally \"Good Christian men rejoice\". I think friends is a great improvement.
