Donnie Davies - Take My Hand

Donnie Davis. Remember him? Well, in 2007 he made quite the splash with his video "The Bible Says" (you can see it here ). Well I just noticed that he's out with a new video. And wow!! The innuendo is much stronger than the last one, but I love it! Donnie Davies - Take My Hand - watch more funny videos Here are the lyrics (as best as I can make them out): Homosexuality .

"Righteous man, get on your knees..." "Jesus my savior is the only man for me..." "Fill me with your love..." Furthermore, this video is shot in very soft lighting, and this guy is wearing pink shirt, white pants, and has a brillian 'stache. Here is a great take I found : This video reminds me that South Park episode where Eric Cartman becomes famous for singing vaguely creepy Christian pop songs—with lyrics that echo “fill me with your love,” and, “Jesus is the only man for me,” and, “righteous man, get on your knees.” That South Park episode nailed the blatantly homoeroti...
