Litany for Martin Luther King, Jr. Sunday
15 January 2012
L: Shout out, do not hold back!
P: Lift up your voice like a trumpet!
L: Is not this the fast that God chooses:
to loose the bonds of injustice,
P: to undo the thongs of the yoke,
and let the oppressed go free?
L: Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,
P: and bring the homeless poor into your house?
L: Then your light shall break forth like the dawn,
and your healing shall spring up quickly;
P: Then your light shall rise in the darkness
and your gloom be like the noonday.
L: And you shall be like a watered garden,
like a spring of water, whose waters never fail.
All: Lift up your voice like a trumpet! Amen. from Isaiah 58
