Happy Easter Weekend!

I hope everyone has a great Easter and remembers that without the resurrection, "Our preaching would be in vain ... we would die in sin."

Here's a new hymn text. Haven't looked at it with an eye for revision/editing yet. What do you think?

FORGIVE US LORD, FOR PASSING BY
86.86.888.6 meter

Forgive us Lord, for passing by
When children cry for bread
Forbid it Lord, that justice lie
in tatters, cold and dead
Outside these walls run desperate streets
where greed is law and life is cheap
We bar the doors, refuse to see,
or hear the words You said:

refrain
Let justice roll like a river. Like a river, let it roll.
Let justice roll like a river; let it roll.

Convict us Lord, we dance and laugh
ignoring those who weep
Correct us Lord, our golden calf
has lulled our hearts to sleep
The gap between the rich and poor
grows ever wider, shore to shore
There's racial hate, religious war
and wolves among the sheep

Indwell us Lord, and purify
our hands to work for You
Enlist us Lord, to serve nearby
and ‘cross the waters, too
Your image-bearers on the earth
will never know how much they’re worth
unless we love and help them first
and show the way to You.
