OK, this next one is kind of
a different sort of scripture.

00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:09.370 align:middle line:84%
This is a poem driven
by its title, which

00:00:09.370 --> 00:00:13.390 align:middle line:84%
comes from a sort of unfortunate
message on a church placard.

00:00:13.390 --> 00:00:17.410 align:middle line:84%
It's called "Don't Let Worries
Kill You, let the Church Help."

00:00:17.410 --> 00:00:21.190 align:middle line:84%
[LAUGHTER] So, "Don't
Let Worries Kill You,

00:00:21.190 --> 00:00:24.520 align:middle line:90%
Let the Church Help."

"Diviner of
blackjack, of blowgun,

we proffer you a psalm.

00:00:46.990 --> 00:00:50.920 align:middle line:84%
Blessed is the man whose
hopes exceed his reach.

00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:55.510 align:middle line:84%
Blessed is the woman who
mixes gin and bleach.

00:00:55.510 --> 00:00:59.860 align:middle line:84%
Blessed is the child who
feels that he can fly.

00:00:59.860 --> 00:01:04.800 align:middle line:84%
Blessed is the steeple on
which the sparrows die."
