Coffee, Coffee, Coffee

(to the tune of Hymn #26, Holy, Holy, Holy)

Coffee, coffee, coffee
Priase the strength of coffee,
Early in the morn we rise with thoughts of only thee.
Served fresh or reheated
Dark by thee defeated,
Brewed black by perk or drip or instantly.

Though all else we scoff, we
Come to church for coffee;
If we're late to congregate, we come in time for thee.
Coffee, our one ritual,
Drinking it habitual,
Brewed black by perk or drip or instantly.

Coffee the communion
Of our Uni-union,
Symbol or our sacred ground, our one necessity.
Feel the holy power
At our coffee hour,
Brewed black by perk or drip or instantly.

(verse written by Margaret Joseph to reflect the current inclusive mood of UUism)
Welcome diversity,
Now we offer herbal tea,
English breakfast, harvest spice or even blackberry!
Cocoa and hot cider,
Our circle ever wider,
Drink what you like in our community.
