Hymn to the Almighty Dollar

Holy, holy, holy! Dollar Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, spendable and mighty!
God in green paper, blessed currency!
Holy, holy, holy! Bankers all adore Thee,
Casting down their self respect around the money sea;
Accountants and businessmen falling down before Thee,
Who was, and is, and evermore shall be.
Holy, holy, holy! Though poverty may hide Thee,
Though the eye of liberal man Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in pow’r, in might, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Dollar Almighty!
All Thy banks shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy; spendable and mighty!
God in green paper, blessed currency!

Wolf
