Career Day at Church

Just so we're clear, I stole this post from last weekend's Edmonton Journal, as supplemented by an internet search. I don't want anyone to think I know the Christian hymnal so well that I could come up with these on my own. Anyway, here are some job-appropriate hymns for the following professions:

Dentists:
Crown Him With Many Crowns

Weather Forecasters:
There Shall Be Showers of Blessings

Building Contractors:
The Church's One Foundation

Tailors:
Holy, Holy, Holy

Golfers:
There's a Green Hill Far Away

Politicians:
Standing on the Promises

Optometrists:
Open My Eyes That I Might See

Government Tax Agents:
I Surrender All

Electricians:
Send the Light

Realtors:
I've Got a Mansion

Massage Therapists:
He Touched Me

Doctors:
The Great Physician

Lawyers:
In the Hour of Trial

Accountants:
Ten Thousand by Ten Thousand

Dry Cleaners:
O For the Faith That Will Not Shrink

Obstetricians:
Come, Labor On

Gardeners:
Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

Librarians:
Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence

Innkeepers:
Abide With Me

Paleontologists:
Rock of Ages

Caterers:
All Things Are Ready, Come to the Feast

Census Takers:
All People That on Earth Do Dwell

Airline Pilots:
Nearer, My God, to Thee

Yes, it's a slow day here at the She Who Seeks blog and inspiration has run a little thin. Thank you for your patience.

Oh sure, you can play this game with any hymnal during boring sermons, I have. And "How firm a foundation" is "The Girdle Hymn".
