Much Binding in the Marsh

St Mary's is a member of the Quiet Garden Trust

St Mary's Youth Fellowship

(to the tune of "Much Binding in the Marsh")

After the Reunion Buffet on Saturday afternoon…

At Saint Mary's Fellowship,

We really are a happy band of people (tiddle-ee, pom-pom)

At Saint Mary's Fellowship,

Our spirits soar as high as any steeple.

We've met our friends, rolled back the years,

We've all had lots of fun;

Now our Reunion's over

There's just one thing to be done;

That's wish ourselves good luck, good health

And God Bless everyone

At Saint Mary's Fellowship

(Three cheers for Selwyn, Hip, Hip etc.)

At Saint Mary's Fellowship (Here's to the Concert)

At. Saint Mary's Fellowship

After the concert on Saturday evening…

At Saint Mary's Fellowship

We really are a close-knit band of "SMYFians"

(tiddle-ee, pom-pom)

At Saint Mary's Fellowship

We don't want any tears, we're not "St. Swithians".

We loved our Supper Concert, it was just too, too divine,

Perhaps what we loved best of all was all that lovely wine,

Now all we hope is that we all

Will get to Church on time

(that's 09.30)

At Saint Mary's, Bedd-ing-ton

(we'll see you there, then)

At Saint Mary's, Bedd-ing-ton.

… and after the service on Sunday morning…

At Saint Mary's Fellowship

We're young at heart no matter what our age is...

(tiddle-ee, pom-pom)

At Saint Mary's Fellowship

[a la Maj. Gen. Stanley, Pirates of Penzance] er, er...age is, age is, ah, yes! we've got it!

To make this rhyme has taken simply ages (ah! hem!)

We'd like to thank dear Selwyn now and the Churchwardens too,

The PCC, St. Mary's Friends and all Bell-ringers who

Allowed us all to share with them their celebrations too

At Saint Mary's, Bedd-ing-ton.
