By love, not by hate
with
light, the word,
piercing
the darkness
tyranny,
oppression
false
truth, scales,
tumbling,
falling down
Such
was the way of Christ
the
way of His disciples
following
His example
down
to this age, Martin,
non-violent
resistance
in
the face of injustice
By
love, not by hate
changing
our land, the world
light
shining, ever, brighter,
into
the darkness;
Light
to transform,
to
heal the world
