Ode to St. Boniface

(Sung to the tune of “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean”)

St Boniface was a great Bishop,

The first German this office to hold.

Of his great descent we are proud,

He founded the church we know now.

Refrain:

Praise God, praise God,

Praise God and serve him, amen, amen!

Praise God, praise God,

Praise God and serve him, amen!

The Northeast’s diverse human culture,

It’s heritage we work to preserve.

We strive to help each family member,

From youngest to oldest we serve.

Refrain

We welcome all people to join us,

To hear the great Word of our Lord.

To celebrate all he has given,

And sing praise in harmonious chord!

Refrain

We try to see Jesus in each one,

And treat them as he did of old.

To reach out and touch one another,

And let God’s loving magic unfold!

Refrain
