Feast Had No Wine

(John 2:1-11)
parody of Sweet Caroline written and performed by Neil Diamond

Wedding began
In Cana drinks are flowin’
Jesus and Co. they all go along

Galilee swing
Dancing to strings and drummers
You can now read in the book of John

He Who Fed The Thousands

(Isaiah 53:5, Matthew 5:14, 28:19, Mark 6:44)
parody of Anthem For The Year 2000 written by Daniel Johns and performed by silverchair

We speak the truth, we’ll take scepticism away
You’ll hear the truth, of all the times that He saved our day
He is the truth, some politicians aren’t so sure
We know the truth, and we’re knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door


Eloi Lama Sabachthani

(Mark 14:32-15:39)
parody of Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me written by Bono & U2 and performed by U2

Disciples kept no lookout
While Jesus prayed that night
The Lord He had been kneeling
In the trees and He got caught
In the torchlight
Of the priest’s guard
Now’s the start


Cries To God

(Psalm 22:15-17, Matthew 26:45-56, 27:27-31, 27:38, 27:54, John 19:28-30)

Torches loom
Burning soon
He won’t defend
In a garden brawl
One thing’s sure
The Saviour knows the score


Feeder Of Men

(John 6:1-13)
parody of Leader Of Men written by Chad Kroeger & Nickelback and performed by Nickelback

Well my friend’s got this big old crowd
Who hear and follow
Listening until midday
Our stomachs are hollow
I am not a feeder of men
This I defer in sorrow
Do not think I could manage this
Think that we’ll have to borrow
Yeah, we’ll have to borrow


The God With No Name

(Joshua 1:8, Acts 17:22-31)
parody of A Horse With No Name written by Dewey Bunnell and performed by America

On my second foreign journey
I was waiting here for Silas
There were altars, idols, rocks and things
They were all over Athens


All The Time

(Romans 12:12, Ephesians 6:18, 1 Thessalonians 5:17)
parody of Only Time written by Enya & Roma Ryan and performed by Enya

You can pray
When you feel low, when the day’s slow
All the time

And you can pray
Cause your God knows, what your heart shows
All the time

Rock This City

(Acts 16:16-34)
parody of Toxicity written and performed by System Of A Down

Soul surgeon, exorcism, slave-girl let go
Locking up guys who denied owners’ cashing up
Beaten bleeding they’re shown wide hostility
They shocked this city, shocked this city, shocked this city

You hear angels sing
You made everything
Including me
