The GOP Family Values Hymnal Presents: “Cock of Pages”


Cock of Pages, cleft for me,
Let me hide my sa-la-mi;
Let the water and the flood,
From Thy youthful tide be blowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Save from wrath and make me newer.

Not the labor of my glands
Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my fears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.

Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to the dross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless look to Thee for less;
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
Watch me, Savior, or I die.

While I draw this filthy breath,
When mine eyes shall you undress,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
Seedy as a mindless bone,
Cock of Pages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself with Thee.

    All the hunky pages he has known
    Gay or Bi — they’re both all right
    They can come and spend the night
    He can hardly wait till they are grown
