1978 we lost Jp I The church was prayin "God's will be done" All the red hats had to make a trip to Rome Each one wonderin if he'd make it back home The cardinals take their place, each in a cell They pray and discuss - kind-a-like show-and-tell The prospect of new blood a non-Italian some said none They overlooked the young brother in cell 91 There he was the chosen one - in cell 91 Nobody ever thought he would be the one The Holy Ghost was workin - more power than a microwave Somethin big goin down in St. Peter's conclave A son from Poland - from the eastern block Nobody knew his name - It's time for him to lead the flock A mystic man of deep prayer who knows how to seek and knock What a shock - a Polock - livin large on the rock Refrain: Totus Tuus... Loleck Wujkeck Wotyja what a name After JPII the church is never gonna be the same 10-16-78 he was 58 The man is connected with the mother of Heaven's gate The decision was made went up in white smoke The whole world knew the Church had a new pope Marchin-on crossin the threshold of hope Learned how to see climbin high on a mountain slope She's workin over there he's workin over here A mother-son combo together ain't no fear We can't make it alone the combat is spiritual The wall comin down? - believe it it's a miracle Evidence? Plenty of it yo it's empirical. A Catholic thing - it makes me Vaticanly lyrical. What an enterprise all the saints he canonized Totus Tuus got him covered can't take away the prize (Refrain) "Dear young people, do not be content with anything less than the highest ideals! Do not let yourselves be dispirited by those who are disillusioned with life and have grown deaf to the deepest and most authentic desires of the heart. The time has come to re-propose wholeheartedly to everyone this high standard of ordinary Christian living. Refuse to sell your dreams cheaply. Watch out for the dangerous ways that lead to passing joys and satisfaction. Deepen your relationship with God through prayer. Prayer spreads Divine energy. It makes us live in a new way and gives rise to a revolutionary evangelical style."
