Martin Luther King – I have a dream
—
I have a dream that one day
every valley shall be exalted,
every hill and mountain
should be made low,
the rough places will be made plain,
and the crooked places
will be straight,
and the glory of the Lord
shall be revealed
and all flesh shall see it together.
This is our hope.
With this faith,
we will be able to hew out
of the mountain of despair
a stone of hope.
With this faith,
we will be able to transform
the jangling discords of our nation
into a beautiful symphony
of brotherhood.
With this faith,
we will be able to work together,
to pray together,
to struggle together,
to go to jail together,
knowing that we will be free one day.
