Benedictions
Hash Benediction
Gispert guide us on this hash,
As along the trail we dash,
Guide our feet on ice and snow,
As to the drinkstop we will go,
Let the moon so brightly shine,
Leading us to beer so fine
Blessing of the Hares
Bless these hares,
Bless this trail,
Coppus no catch us,
Farmer no shoot us,
Doggus no bite us,
Gator no chomp us,
Snakeus no strike us,
Heatus no stroke us,
Plenty of cold beer to drink,
Coitus non interruptus.
BLESSING OF “G”
RA: The buzz which passes all understanding,
Keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of hashing,
And the Blessing of “G” all plastered:
The Flour (make first slash of “X” in the air)
The Sun (complete the “X” in the air)
And the Short Cut that pays off (make circle around “X” in the air)
Be among you and remain with you always.
Go Forth to Love and Serve the Hash.
Pack: Thanks be to “G!”

AMAZING BEER
Melody – Amazing Grace
Amazing Beer – a taste profound
A whole keg just for thee
The pack is lost, but home you’ve found
the beer check you can see
Amazing Beer – a taste profound
A whole keg just for thee
The pack is lost, but home you’ve found
The beer check you can see
Our Lager
Our lager,
Who art in barrels,
Hallowed be thy drink.
Thy will be drunk,
(I will be drunk),
At home as in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head,
And forgive us our spillages,
As we forgive those who spill against us.
And lead us not to incarceration,
But deliver us from hangovers.
For thine is the beer, The bitter and The lager.
Forever and ever

Swing Low
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Comin’ for to carry me home;
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Comin’ for to carry me home.
I looked over Jordan,
And what did I see,
Comin’ for to carry me home,
A band of angels comin’ after me,
Comin’ for to carry me home.
If you get there before I do,
Comin’ for to carry me home,
Tell all my friends I’m comin’ twice,
Comin’ for to carry me home.
Sometimes I’m up, sometimes I’m down
Comin’ for to carry me home
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Comin’ for to carry me home
