I love that poem! We actually used to recite that daily in school (I went to Catholic school), and even though I am not particularly religious these days, either, I still remember and love it. You're right, it's glorious to say out loud. :)

I went to Catholic school too, up to the age of eleven, but I think it was more a case of convenient private school located close to home than any desire on my parents' part to imbue me with any sort of religious feeling. And we certainly never recited anything memorable.

Reciting it is like getting drunk on words. :)
