I Think My Boyfriend’s a Calvinist
I really enjoyed this video. I happened upon this video from a Presbyterian youth “PYV Got Talent” event in Victoria, Australia. In case you are wondering, yes, she married her Calvinist boyfriend. 🙂 Enjoy.
Lyrics are posted below the video.
He won’t buy me roses
None of those daffodils
He just buys me TULIPS
To explain the way he feels
He said, “I treasure the pslams, on my
heart they are engraved.
But there’s room for your name too, in a
special spot I’ve saved.”
“Can I ask you on a date? Even though
you’re totally depraved?”
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
He’s always reading an NKJV
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
Quoting Romans 8:28-30
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
But ultimately, it doesn’t matter –
I didn’t choose him, he chose me.
He said, “All I’m looking for is a godly woman,
I don’t care if she’s not pretty.”
And considering your complexion,
it’s a good thing I believe in unconditional election.”
He said, “perseverance of the Saints is well
illustrated by the way I put up with you
constant complaining.”
I said, “You’re an epistemological,
presuppositional, and post-millennial
Covenantal Calvinist, also a theonomist,
superlapsarian, and Reformed Presbyterian, but never an
Arminian…” Don’t say I am complicated!
He said, “Babe I’m sorry, I’ll tell you
something true.”
“You’re so unblemished, I could sacrifice you.”
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
He’s got a tattoo that says “I heart RC Sproul”
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
He made me burn my NIV Bible
I think my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
But ultimately, it doesn’t matter –
I didn’t choose him, he chose me.
He said, “I wish I was the Holy Spirit so I
could be inside your heart.”
He said, “God told us to multiply, so baby
Let’s start!”
One day he said, “I love you Grace”. I said
“My name is Jacki, you fool.”
He said, “Are you sure your name isn’t
grace, because you’re irresistible.”
And that’s what I knew, that…
My boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
Il parles français comme Jean Calvin.
I know my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
Born in August like St Augustine.
I know my boyfriend’s a Calvinist;
But ultimately, it doesn’t matter –
I didn’t choose him, he chose me.
