Jeremy, the Lifeway Boy
Well, In honor of tonight I figured I should post the lyrics I wrote in a spoof to the totally awesome song from the video above!
There’s a boy who works at LifeWay
Who is very inspirational
He is very inspirational because of many things
I go in at 8:11 and he smiles and says, “How are you”
When he smiles and says, “How are you”
I can swear my heart grows wings
So today at 8:11 I decided I should meet him
I decided I should meet him in a proper, formal way
So today at 8:11 when he smiled and said, “How are you”
I said, “Fine- and my name’s Kendal”
And he softly answered, “Hey”
And I said, “My name is Kendal, and thank you for your help today”
And he said his name was Jeremy,
Which provides the inspiration for this poem.
Jeremy, the Lifeway Boy, bring me Jesus, bring me joy!
Oh, Jeremy, the Lifeway boy
I love him, I love him, I love him.
So I’d like to get my nerve up to recite my poem-musical
He would like the fact its musical because he sings at church
So today at 8:11 Jeremy told me he was singing
In a church down in the village on the other side of town
And he smoothly scanned my purchase
Of my new Veggie Tales Video
But for me he scanned his discount card,
And he didn’t think I knew
But I saw him scan his discount card
And for me he gave me 10 percent off.
And I knew that 10 percent off meant
That Jeremy loved me too!
I said, “What time are you singing,
and thank you for your employee discount”
He said, “Here’s an extra surprise..”
and he handed me this little Veggie Tale hat!
Jeremy, the Lifeway Boy, bring me Jesus, bring me joy!
Oh, Jeremy, the Lifeway boy
I love him, I love him, I love him.
I used to be the kind of girl
Who’d run when love rushed toward her.
But finally a voice whispered love can be yours
if you ask him to come sing at your church!
Jeremy, the Lifeway Boy, bring me Jesus, bring me joy!
Oh, Jeremy, the Lifeway boy
I love him, I love him, I love him.
So many years my heart has waited-
Oh! Maybe my Steven Curtis Chapman CD is out-dated?!
Jeremy, the Lifeway Boy, bring me Jesus, bring me joy!
Oh, Jeremy, the Lifeway boy
I love him, I love him, I love him.
