to
let the oppressed go free;
but
we cannot be silent
because
of Calvary
The
grace he gave us
the
gift of new life;
we
are to be light
into
the dark night
To
give hope to all people
sharing
the gifts from God
His
love for each of us
to
raise us from the dust
To
set the captives free
to
break the yokes we carry
to
free us to love our neighbor
our
sisters and our brothers
To
loose the bonds of injustice
with
our voices now rising
the
light we carry, to witness,
to
set the whole world free
