Song : Cricket
(sung by the vicar)
Some people say that life is a game, well if this
is so
I’d like to know the rules on which this game of
life is based.
I know of no game more fitting than the age old
game of cricket
It has honour, it has character and it’s
british.
Now God laid down the rules of life when he wrote
those ten commandments
And to cricket those ten same rules shall apply.
Show compassion and self-righteousness and be
honest above all
And come to god’s call with bat and ball.
Now the devil has a player and he’s called the
demon bowler,
He’s shrewd, he’s rude and he’s wicked.
He is sent by sinful satan and he’s out to take
your wicket
And you know that that’s not cricket.
He’ll baffle you with googlies with leg breaks
and offspin
But keep a level head and don’t let that demon
in.
So keep a straight bat at all times, let the
Bible be your guide
And you’ll get by, yes you’ll get by.
All through your life he’ll try to bowl you out
Beware the demon bowler.
He’s crafty and deceitful and he’ll try to
l.b.w.,
And bowl a maiden over.
The devil takes the weak in spirit and so we must
always be courageous
And remember that God is on your side.
So keep old satan in your sights and play the
straight and narrow line
And you’ll get by, yes you’ll get by.
