I'm sorry you stayed

I'm sorry you stayed

in the face of #injustice;
I'm sorry you were #silent
when #evil took voice;
I'm sorry you stayed
when you knew what it cost them
stripped of what they knew
their place, their #life.

set the hills ablaze

set the hills ablaze
with #fire, #God's passion;
#Spirit fill our lives
with His #love, #compassion.

seek God, our heavenly Father
in this #Pentecost season;
offer hope to the others
the forgotten, the stranger.

may your pain be my pain

may your pain be my #pain
your grief my grief
may I not be complacent
may I not be complicit
may your #anger be my anger
at the injustice, brutality
for more than 400 years
since the first slave was captured
dragged from their home in Africa
down to the present day

George Floyd
