20. Blest Be Those Who
Do Not Believe

    1.
    Blest be those who do not believe
    the glib words their preachers "receive."
    Blest be those who know that it is best
    to listen sit quiet and test.

    2.
    Blest be those who question rich gowns,
    fine suits, and gold chairs, and fake crowns.
    Blest be those who doubt those who scream
    and seek only Mammon’s bright gleam.

Traditional Title: Blest Be the Tie That Binds.
New Words by Douglas Milburn.
