Thou long expected protestant

I’ve spent the last few years singing a tune something like (start thinking “Come Thou Long Expected Jesus”:

Come thou long expected protestant
Who can go to church with me
Who reads Miller, and Bell, and Lewis
Accepted by my family

Christian college grad, thinks PDAs are bad
Grape juice communion, loose orthodoxy
Missions trips, abstinence, dances without his hips
God told him he should marry me!

Now that I’m seeing a catholic, the vision for my future may have to evolve rapidly.

i'd like to see the catholic version entitled,
"welcome thou unexpected catholic".
