we shall with courageous faith

stand in the public squares to

face despisers with gargantuan

displays of love. where the wind

blows, we shall march to overcome

the boundaries, the pain, the fear,

the inequalities of these splintering

years. we shall overcome with the

simplicity of tenderness and God’s

sublime tears. after all the waiting,

we shall overcome in countless ways

the penetration of nails into our dark

skin, the ignorant mockery of the

Spirit above and the butchery of

Christ’s injured love. we shall overcome

the spit in the face, the rubbish they

say and the theologies of hate also

easily preached. we shall overcome

with the colored Christ who came

to give his life for us. soon, and very

soon, we shall overcome with the truth

that hung on a tree.
