“Jesus and I Know It” – LMFAO parody

produced as a parody by HolyCrossJP2 youth group and posted to their old YouTube channel

As fun as this parody video is, we can also learn something from it.  Below is a chart of the lyrics to the parody version of the song and comments on their meaning with reference to Scripture and our Catholic traditions.  Some references refer to just the lyrics, others to the visuals, and some to both.

Lyrics	Reference and Comments
Yeah Yeah, world was full of sin There weren’t no hope till I walked in	“All things came to be through him, and without him nothing came to be. What came to be through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race.” (John 1:3-4) Jesus is our hope and our salvation, the one of whom John the Baptist says, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29).
And when I start to speak Everybody thinking “Man, he’s so meek”	“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land” (Matthew 5:5) This comes from the Beatitudes, which is a set of sayings that Jesus spoke early in his ministry as part of the Sermon on the Mount.
This is how I roll Riding on up on a donkey, yo	“So they brought [the donkey] to Jesus, threw their cloaks over [it], and helped Jesus to mount. As he rode along, the people were spreading their cloaks on the road.” (Luke 19:35-36) This was part of Jesus’ Entry into Jerusalem which we mark each year on Palm Sunday at the beginning of Holy Week.
And if you’re looking stressed I put a hand on your head and say now you’re blessed What	“Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray.” (Matthew 19:13) The Laying on of Hands, placing one’s hands on another’s forehead as a blessing, is an important sign which we will discuss in a later Confirmation class!
Girl, look at that Body, girl, look at that Body Girl, look at that Body, I work out Girl, look at that Body, girl, look at that Body Girl, look at that Body, I work out	“Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me.'” (Luke 22:19) As Catholic Christians, we believe that Jesus is truly present in the bread that is consecrated at Mass to become Jesus’ body.
When I walk in the spot, this is what I see They about to stone this woman for adultery I say, if you are without sin You can be the first to throw it (throw it, throw it, throw it) I’m Jesus and I know it I’m Jesus and I know it	This is a summary of the story of the woman caught in adultery, which can be found in the Bible at John 7:53-8:11. Unlike the Old Law that would call for a harsh death sentence for this woman, the New Law of Jesus shows mercy.
Yo, when I’m on the run People looking at me like I’m the Prodigal Son	The parable of the Prodigal Son can be found at Luke 15:11-32.  This is a story of a son who leaves home with his inheritance and wastes all of it.  The son is still welcomed home by his father with great love after he comes to his senses.
If I got the time I’ll take your water turn it into wine	Mary asks Jesus for help and so he performs his first miracle at the Wedding at Cana, found at John 2:1-11. Jesus changes some water into wine so that his hosts will not be embarrassed by running out of wine.
There ain’t no problem that I can’t tackle Just ask for Jesus at the tabernacle	The tabernacle is the place in a church in which the consecrated hosts (the body of Christ) are reserved until they are needed. View the tabernacle in Queen of Angels Church
Now I’m not a genie, I don’t grant wishes But something something – Loaves and fishes! I’m Jesus!	“Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds.” (Matthew 14:19) Apart from the Resurrection, the Feeding of the 5,000 is the only miracle of Jesus to appear in all four Gospels (Matthew 14:14-21; Mark 6:34-44; Luke 9:11-17; and John 6:5-14).
Girl, look at that Body, girl, look at that Body Girl, look at that Body, I work out Girl, look at that Body, girl, look at that Body Girl, look at that Body, I work out	“When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they began to be afraid.” (John 6:19) One the miracles of Jesus was his ability to walk on water.
When I walk in the church, this is what I see	“Every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple area and to breaking bread” (Acts 2:46) We meet together to worship God and receive the Eucharist because that is what the Apostles did from the earliest days of the Church.
They be celebrating Eucharistic Mystery	“For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.” (John 6:55) How the bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Christ is a mystery called transsubstantiation. Their very substance is changed, though they still have the taste and texture of bread and wine.
I got crazy ’mounts of grace And to them I will bestow it (stow it, stow it, stow it) I’m Jesus and I know it Hey, yeah, I’m Jesus and I know it Check it out, yeah, check it out	“From his fullness we have all received, grace in place of grace, because while the law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” (John 1:16-17) Grace is the unearned, undeserved spiritual favor and blessing that comes from God through Jesus.
Washing, washing, washing, washing, washing feet	“Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist.” (John 13:5) This was part of the Washing of the Feet at the Last Supper. Each year on Holy Thursday we re-enact the washing of the feet as part of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper.
Gath’ring, gath’ring, gath’ring, gath’ring, gath’ring sheep	“But whoever enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep… he walks ahead of them, and the sheep follow him, because they recognize his voice.” (John 10:2, 4) “When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.” (Mark 6:34) In these and other passages in the Gospels, Jesus is the Good Shepherd who “lays down his life for the sheep” (John 10:11) who follow him.
Healing, healing, healing, healing leprosy	“Moved with pity, [Jesus] stretched out his hand, touched him, and said to him, ‘I do will it. Be made clean.’ The leprosy left him immediately, and he was made clean.” (Mark 1:41-42) Touching and healing a leper would have been seen as a huge deal, since leprosy was so feared that those with the disease were not allowed to interact with the healthy.
Another word for Holy Ghost is Paraclete I do the Jesus, man I do the Jesus, man	“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always, the Spirit of truth, which the world cannot accept, because it neither sees nor knows it.” (John 14:16) Paraclete is a Greek word which means “Advocate,” a consoler or spokesperson.  Here, it means God’s continued presence in the world through the Holy Spirit.
I’m Jesus and I know it Hey yeah, yo	“As he blessed them he parted from them and was taken up to heaven.” (Luke 24:51) The Ascension is when Jesus left the Apostles to return to his Father in heaven.

There are several thousand saints recognized by the Catholic Church for their heroic virtues and dedication to their relationship with Christ and with God’s people. Over the past few years at Queen of Angels, almost a hundred of these saints have been chosen by candidates to do research about and take as a personal patron through their Confirmation names. Basic information about those saints, gathered by past Confirmation candidates, can be accessed in the table below.

During our Confirmation class “Saintapalooza,” the stories of these saints are examined by the candidates for Confirmation to spark their own search for just the right Confirmation Name.

---

If you are seriously considering one of these saints as a source for your Confirmation name, please do further research using the resources recommended on the Confirmation Name essay assignment sheet (Track A | Track B). Remember that because these bios are written by individual students, they are not as reliable as the reputable sources that were recommended to you on the assignment sheet.

While your search might start with Googling, draw your research notes from CatholicSaints.info, CatholicOnline (Catholic.org), or a similar Catholic website.  Wikipedia is NOT the best place to draw information about saints from because it is so comprehensive about historical detail that it rarely gets to the heart of who the person was and why this person is a saint.  For example, if you wanted to make muffins, you would look up the recipe on a cooking website, not just investigate the history or variety of muffins on Wikipedia.

You are asked to report to your catechist/group on your early progress as part of the class the week of Monday, November 3.  Bring in the names of 2 saints with notes on what you like or find interesting about each of them.  This should be written on a Notes page in your Confirmation Journal so it is less easy to lose.  (Flyer with full details on homework from class the week of October 27)

Session Overview for Catechists
Slides * Catechist Summary * Track A Table Listing (link yet to come)

• Track A (Religious Education): Monday 9/29/2025, 6:45-8:30 p.m.
• Track B (Catholic Schools): taught Wednesday 10/1 and Thursday 10/2 in Religion class

Warm-up activity (5 min.)

Track A suggested activity: As they find their assigned tables and sit down, students and catechists meet one another in their small groups and begin to build community.

• Share your name, grade in school, and one thing that most people don’t know about you.  Prompts can be pulled from the cup matching your table’s color.  (sets of prompts to cut apart). 
• If time allows, volunteers may also share homework responses to journal questions, especially from pages vii and viii (Roman numerals 7 and 8).

Track B suggested activity: Volunteers may share homework responses to journal questions, especially from pages vii and viii (Roman numerals 7 and 8). The icebreaker above would likely be a dull exercise for the Catholic schools students who must know their classmates pretty well already.

Opening Prayer (5 min.)

Act of Faith – found in the Confirmed in the Spirit textbook on p. 108

Belief, Faith and Trust (15 min)

Beliefs are based in evidence, in things that are convincing to us, either by logic or by observation. By learning more about the teachings of the Catholic Church, we come to question them, accept them and believe them.

Trust is a decision made based on belief.  If I believe that someone is my friend, I may decide to trust her.  But I can also choose not to trust. I may believe that elastic and latex are strong materials, but not trust them enough to bungee-jump off a bridge. There are people who believe in God but do not choose to trust either God’s wisdom or God’s goodness. There is a mutual element to trust that is not present in belief: good, healthy relationships require both individuals to trust each other.

However, we can understand faith as a gift from God. Through the grace we receive in the sacrament of Baptism, our parents pass along the gift of their faith to us.  Faith is based on a change of attitude, a change of heart, not on observable facts. While your beliefs may or may not influence your actions, true faith in your soul changes the actions you take and the way you are. It is a different outlook on the world. Our faith is what leads us to trust in God.

Video Conversation-Starter: “Jesus and Laura”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhnRvb-M-P4

Breakout Session: Trust in God (5 min)

Briefly discuss the video in small groups (or as a class, if desired):

• • How do you define “faith”? What does it take in order to have faith?
  • What, besides fear, might get in the way of faith?  How can someone overcome fear or those other obstacles in order to have greater faith?

Eucharistic Adoration (10 min)

One thing that is both a gift of our Catholic tradition and a challenge to our faith, belief, and trust is Eucharistic Adoration.  This is a prayerful experience of contemplating the Divine Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, our spiritual food and the “Body of Christ“​.  But on the surface it can seem a very strange thing to do, because it requires belief, trust, and faith to even understand what it really is. 

​We don’t see Jesus’ face!  We see what looks like bread and ​we know tastes like bread but we believe ​IS the Body of Jesus Christ! ​(As we affirm every time we receive Holy Communion: the minister says “The Body of Christ” and we say “Amen” which is an enthusiastic statement of belief: “Truly!”.)

We trust in the words of Jesus:​

“I am the Bread of Life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.” – John 6:35​

Transitional Prayer Activity: Fixing Our Eyes on Jesus (5-10 min)

Going deeper on the video with “Jesus and Laura.”  Students will each choose an image of Jesus’ face (from printed image options provided, or can be done anytime using a smart phone after searching for a good picture of Jesus):

Then let’s look at Jesus’ face we have chosen, and pray along with the song “Turn Your Eyes” by Lauren Daigle.

Breakout Session: Reading the Church (25-30 min)

• Jesus speaks to us in the Eucharist​
• Jesus also speaks to us through the works of art and the symbols we see at church​
• Something to look at when your mind “drifts” during Mass

“Fix your eyes” on something in the church to help you pray​. Look at one of the church photos given to your group. Photos are from Queen of Angels Church and/or St. Matthias Church.  

What do the things you are looking at say to you about Jesus? Put your ideas together and see how that compares to the Hint Page in the envelope.
