Papa Benedetto Did It God's Way

In honor of the service Papa Benedetto has given to the Church from his days as a priest to his time as Supreme Pontiff, here is a song I have written about him. It is sung to the tune of My Way. I call it (He Did It) God's Way.

We see, the end is here

And he has faced the final curtain

My friend, I make it clear

I state my case, yes I am certain

He lived a life that's full

He traveled each and ev'ry highway

But more, more than this, he did it God's way.

Regrets, he may have a few

But if so, too few to mention

He did what God had him do and saw it through without exemption

God's plan for each charted course, each careful step along the byway

No more, no more than this, he did it God's way.

Then there were times, I'm sure you knew

His foes opposed what he would do

But through it all, where they spread doubt

He knew the truth and spoke it out

He faced them all and he stood tall and did it God's way.

He loved, he laughed and cried

And all the while, God's way was choosing

And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing

To see he did all that

and may I add, not in a shy way,

Oh, no, oh, no, not him, 

he did it God's way!

For what is a Pope, what has he got?

If not God's help, then he had naught

To say the things he truly feels are the words of one who kneels

The record shows he took the blows and did it God's way!!!!!

Yes, he did it God's way.

Ciao Papa! Mille Grazie!!!!!
