Verse 1
Em
God's angry man,
his crotchety scholar,
Was St. Jerome, a great name -caller,
Am
Who cared not a dime for laws of libel,
Em
And in his spare time
translated the Bible.
C
D
Em
St. Jerome, the thunderer
Quick to disparage all joys but learning
St. Jerome thought marriage
better than burning
Am
But didn't like women's
painted cheeks
Em
Yeah, he didn't like Romans
and he didn't like Greeks
C
D
Em
Saint Jerome, the Thunderer
Hated pagans for their pagan ways
Yet doted on Cicero all of his days
Am
A born reformer, cross and gifted
Em
He scolded mankind sterner than swifty

D
Em
Saint Jerome, the thunderer

But a swell man's mind with godly lovin'
C

It takes all kinds to make it
Em
B
Em
to heaven
Worked to save the world
from the heathen
Fled to a cave for peace to
Am
breathe in
Promptly wherewith for miles around
Em
He filled the air with fury and sound
Saint Jerome,
C
D
Em
talking about the thunderous
In mighty prose for all mighty ends
He thrust at his foes,
quarreled with his friends
Am
And served his master
though with complaints
Em
He wasn't a plaster, sort of saint
C
D
Em
Saint Jerome, the thunder
Can't get through life by
just being nice
Ignorance of scripture is
ignorance of Christ
Am
Love without truth
is just sentimental
Em
Truth without love is sterile
C

Saint Jerome, the thunderer

minds with godly leaven

It takes all kinds to make

it to heaven
Em
God's angry man, his crotchety scholar,
Was Saint Jerome,
the great name -caller,

And in his spare time,
translated the Bible,
