Flawed and fickle priests and people - hymn
Third Sunday after Pentecost
Matthew 11: 16-19, 25-30
Flawed and fickle priests and people,
like young children playing games,
running, squabbling, teasing, laughing,
calling one another names.
But the children's understanding
Jesus treasured, underlined,
things the wise had soon forgotten,
children seek and children find...
Tune: SERVANT SONG, or ALL FOR JESUS
Third Sunday after Pentecost, Matthew 11: 16-19, 25-30, hymn, Jesus,
children, priests, people, quarrels, playing games, questions, doubts, anxiety, rest,
comfort
