Aquila (Parody of "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull) |
| Renting an apartment |
| Riding round the world and making tents |
| Claudius ran him out Rome |
| He’s the king who said they had to go |
| Hey, Aquila |
| Trying to preach God’s Son |
| Up against the pagan pantheon |
| Hey, Aquila |
| With his wife Priscilla |
| Preaching 'bout Jesus and His hope and love |
| Oh, Aquila |
| Once he left Rome |
| We all met up in Corinth |
| Makin' tents, you know the way we sew |
| They’ve heard the facts |
| As the friends of this apostle |
| Goin' down to the hall to watch me preach |
| BREAK |
| Leavin' your home |
| Discardin' all your goods |
| Salvation on the road is enough for me |
| Aquila, my friend, though it’s not a way that’s easy |
| The Lord our God will see to all your needs |
| Do you still remember — we met in Acts 18? |
| Preaching Christ for nearly two long years |
| To Corinthians that believed |
| Hey! |
| And you passed the test there in Ephesus |
| When even I’d left town |
| And Apollos you guys planted in the faith |
| REPEAT CHORUS |
| De de de de — |
| Aquila, my friend, though it’s not a way that’s easy |
| The Lord our God will see to all your needs |
| Whoa! |
| Aquila! |
| How they pronounced it in the movie «A.D.» |
| and is one of two ways |
| Of pronouncing it, although most preachers seem to pronounce it |
| «uh-KWIL-uh» |
