Pastor Debbie’s Favorite Things

My SPRC chair had asked me for a list of my favorite things before my ordination party. This is what came of it: (Sung by the "non-singers" of my congregation)

White Chocolate mocha from Starbucks of course.

The Shack, Harry Potter two books she’d endorse.

Sour patch kids are a snack she might bring.

These are a few of her favorite things.

Riding Space Mountain, eating bananas quite frozen.

Third Day and Garth Brooks some music she’s chosen.

“Unanswered Prayers” is a song she might sing.

These are a few of her favorite things.

Cranium with friends is a thing she might do.

Hollering and cheering for UCLA too

Eating fruit that is dried and cheese that is string.

These are a few of her favorite things.

Liver and onions, having no options, when the Trojans win

She simply remembers her favorite things

And all seems right, again

Tilling and planting and picking the fruit

Reading and hiking and sewing to boot.

Enjoying her family at Thanksgiving

These are a few of her favorite things

Teaching and preaching and helping the homeless.

Stretching us all to see who we can bless

Rebuilding the destruction a hurricane brings.

These are a few of her favorite things.

Leading a congregation who has chosen to grow.

A church with more potential than the members know.

People who love and are serving the King

These are a few of her favorite things.

When he calls you, if you answer

If His Love you will share

You can make a difference to all those around

And people will see Him there.
