According to the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, we are no longer wretched sinners. Now we just need to be strengthened. Today, for the closing hymn, our choir sang Amazing Grace, at least what's left of it after it fell under the axe of the CCCB.
The opening lines that we are so familiar with are supposed to go like this:
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me.
But now they read:
Amazing grace how sweet the sound, that saved and strengthened me.
Excuse me, I'm about to be sick. Good old Catholic Book of Modern Worship.
