HYMNS

We are sisters, male and gay,

We are sisters, male and gay,

No more guilt we cry today.

No more stigma, no more shame,

Perpetual Indulgence is our aim.

We are Sisters, male and gay,

No more guilt we cry today.

We condemn conformity

With a conscious irony.

Dressed in habits, black and white,

Bandeaux stiff and wimple tight.

Nothing but the face is shown,

Funny freedom, convent clone.

It's no idle act we play,

It's a way in which to say:

Gender rules are up the creek,

We are strong 'cos we are weak.

Male ego, male pride,

Bite the dust when we arrive.

If you wish to join our band,

Take the veil, come hand in hand.

Sister Sit will supervise,

He'll be your Novice Mistress wise.

If you wish to merry be,

Get thee to a nunnery.

AMAZING PRIDE

Amazing Pride, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost, but now am found,

'Twas afeared, but now am free.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,

We have already passed.

'Twas Pride that brought us safe so far,

And all our foes outclassed.

When we've been out ten thousand years,

And all our rights are won,

We've no less days to sing Pride's praise

Than when we'd first begun.

Amazing Pride, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost, but now am found,

'Twas afeard, but now am free.
