Let all those who do justice and give mercy say "amen!"...




Listen to the full speech, but here are the bits that moved me...


... deliver us from the explotation of the poor, or the least of these, and from favoritism towards the rich, the elite of these, ...


help us ... work for that day when nations shall not lift-up sword against nation, when tanks will be beaten into tractors...


help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get back,
when brown can stick aroun',
when yella' will be mella',
when the red man can get ahead man,
when white will embrace what is right.

Let all those who do justice and give mercy say "amen!"...
