Spending time in preparation

Fa la la la la la la la.

Searching for the inspiration

Fa la la la la la la la.

Reading books and praying hard

Fa la la la la la la la.

‘Til services are all prepared

Fa la la la la la la laaaa.

 

Time is passing far too quickly

Fa la la la la la la la.

Deadlines looming, feeling sickly

Fa la la la la la la la.

Can’t I use last year’s sermon?

Fa la la la la la la la.

None recall it that’s for certain

Fa la la la la la la la.

 

How do I include all carols?

Fa la la la la la la la.

Miss one out at my peril

Fa la la la la la la la.

Everyone has a favourite

Fa la la la la la la la.

Hearty singing helps them savour it

Fa la la la la la la la.

 

(Well, you find a rhyme for “favourite”!)
