Sisters

Last Saturday I performed in a small skit that some friends and I put together. It was part of our ward's annual Blitz (a day of crafts, hanging out with friends, warm soups, and yummy salads). If you know the movie White Christmas then you'll recognize this song - or perhaps you won't!



Lyrics:

Sisters, sisters,
There were never such devoted sisters.
Reading, praying, serving hands are all around
where any Irving-ite can be found.

Caring, sharing
every little thing that we are wearing.
Even when a baby bump appears on scene
Three to nine months – and in between!

All kinds of weather, we stick together,
the same in the rain or sun.
So many faces, but in tight places
we think and we act as one. Uh-huh!

After meetings
a hallway full of talking and of greetings
Husbands all have tried to split us up, but no one can.
Oh, bless the mister who patiently waits for his sister
and oh, bless the sister who patiently waits for her man!

All kinds of weather, we stick together,
the same in the rain or sun.
So many faces, but in tight places
we think and we act as one. Uh-huh!

Sisters’ meetings
never are complete without some eating.
Whether it’s Enrichment night or not, it’s all the same.
Casseroles, chocolate – just tryin’ to follow the Prophet
Go visit your sister. We know she’ll be glad that you came!

Sisters!
Sisters!
We’re glad that you came!
