Parody of "Hey Jude" performed by the Beatles and written by John Lennon & Paul McCartney
(The Epistle of Jude)
NOTE: This song was recorded live at Lazarus Tomb in Arnold PA on March 9, 1996. It was originally
released on a homemade cassette called "Beatleg" in late 1996.
Saint Jude ... he makes it fast
Take a second and read his letter
Remember
It's just a few verses long Ð so is this song
So pay attention
Saint Jude ... both he and James
Were related to our Lord and Savior
They didn't
Believe their brother was Him Ð till He'd risen
But He forgave 'em
And when they tell you Jude's a saint
They should Ð explain
Don't dare think that you're someone who's lower
For 1 Corinthians 6, verse 2, explains, we too
Are saints, just as well; he's just much older
La da da da da da da da da da
Saint Jude ... is written down
I have found it ... here's how you get there
Remember
That Revelation comes last ... right before that
Is Saint Jude's letter
So get it out and read again, Saint Jude, begin
Don't wait until Sunday School to learn it
For don't you know that old Saint Jude
He said Ð we should
Contend for the faith, because it's permanent
Saint Jude ... goes way too fast
Take a second and read his letter
Remember
We played this song about him Ð so you'd begin
To read his letter
And ya Ð never Ð ever Ð better Ð forget it Ð now
C'mon and get it out now
Read it out loud Ð Saint Jude
C'mon and get it out now
Read it out loud Ð Saint Jude
(I don't want you to pray to Saint Jude
You just gotta read it!)
Jude 1:3
Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had
to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.
