• Reformation Polka -- Roderick (funny), 08:36:30 10/29/06 Sun
  The Reformation Polka
  
  Christians with a Reformation heritage are often accused of being cold & dispassionate. I have even heard some people claim that "Calvinists are miserable people, who live in a miserable world" as if we go around all day long stewing over the wrath of God. Well, from my experience Reformed folk tend to be the most upbeat people around -- why shouldn't they be, after all we advocate that God is Sovereign thus we need not fret about salvation or events in our lives. Yet, Reformed folk have also been some of the most mighiest evangelists throughout church history. (Wycliffe, Edwards, Spurgeon, & others). So, to show that Reformed folk are positive, jovial folk I'd like to present you with this little presentation that I know even the meaniest Catholic or Anabaptist will get a chuckle out of.

  Reformation Polka -- by Robert J. Gebel
  When I was just ein junger Mann I studied canon law;
  Though Erfurt was a challenge, it was just to please my Pa.
  Then came the storm, the lightning struck, I called upon Saint Anne,
  I shaved my head, I took my vows, an Augustinian! Oh...
  Chorus:
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation
  Speak your mind against them and face excommunication!
  Nail your theses to the door, let's start a Reformation!
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation!
  When Tetzel came near Wittenberg, St. Peter's profits soared,
  I wrote a little notice for the All Saints' Bull'tin board:
  "You cannot purchase merits, for we're justified by grace!
  Here's 95 more reasons, Brother Tetzel, in your face!" Oh...
  Chorus:
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation
  Speak your mind against them and face excommunication!
  Nail your theses to the door, let's start a Reformation!
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation!
  They loved my tracts, adored my wit, all were exempleror;
  The Pope, however, hauled me up before the Emperor.
  "Are these your books? Do you recant?" King Charles did demand,
  "I will not change my Diet, Sir, God help me here I stand!" Oh...
  Chorus:
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation -
  Speak your mind against them and face excommunication!
  Nail your theses to the door, let's start a Reformation!
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation!
  Duke Frederick took the Wise approach, responding to my words,
  By knighting "George" as hostage in the Kingdom of the Birds.
  Use Brother Martin's model if the languages you seek,
  Stay locked inside a castle with your Hebrew and your Greek! Oh...
  Chorus:
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation -
  Speak your mind against them and face excommunication!
  Nail your theses to the door, let's start a Reformation!
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation!
  Let's raise our steins and Concord Books while gathered in this place,
  And spread the word that 'catholic' is spelled with lower case;
  The Word remains unfettered when the Spirit gets his chance,
  So come on, Katy, drop your lute, and join us in our dance! Oh...
  Chorus:
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation -
  Speak your mind against them and face excommunication!
  Nail your theses to the door, let's start a Reformation!
  Papal bulls, indulgences, and transubstantiation!
