His disciples began to pluck ears of corn.
The Pharisees were saying , why are they doing what is not lawful.
We too often invite scorn.
But then what is lawful or awful.

Have you never read what David did.
When he was in need and hungry.
Do they say of us as of  him that we overbid.
Are we trespassing in another country.

But the Sabbath was made for man.
Not man for the Sabbath.
The Son of man.
Is Lord of the Sabbath.

So we pluck, when we please, the grain.
That is our happy refrain.

……

Sabbath made for man
Man is not made for Sabbath
That is our refrain
