I Stand Corrected

Yesterday at Glenwood we sang a song with the words Kyrie Eleison in it. The words translated mean Lord Have Mercy. On the way home Julie commented that the words were familiar to her, that she remembered them in a song from the 80′s. I told her she was crazy.

Well, today I did a little digging and sure enough…she was right. The words are from Mr. Mister’s song titled Kyrie. It’s from 1985. If you’re a child of the 80′s you’ll definetely remember this song. And now, it takes on a whole new meaning. I liked it so much I had to purchase it on iTunes. So, courtesy of YouTube here is the song (and video).

Cheers.

    That’s funny. I used to sing that song all the time, but never knew what they were saying. Funny you sang that in church…fitting, but funny. Go Mr. Mr.

    Hey Meriwether – we didn’t sing the Mr. Mister song in church. We sang a song that had the same words…which led Julie to think of the Mr. Mister song.

    Sandi – I followed the game on ESPN’s website…I was totally pumped that they pulled out the win in the last seconds.

    Cheers.
