Hymn: Tangled in prejudice, lost in presumption

Fourth Sunday in Lent
John 9. 1-41


Tangled in prejudice, lost in presumption,
locked in our judgments, so sure of our ground;
others are sinful, but we are the righteous,
this is the truth we are sure we have found.

This is our blindness and now we must own it,
owning suspicion of those we deride;
painting them wrongly, unjustly with hatred,
side-stepping honesty, trying to hide...
