Every knee shall bow


Every knee shall bow
In weeping for George Floyd who lost his breath
Every knee shall bow
In protest against the knees of prejudice that put him to death
Every knee shall bow
In repentance for white supremacy whose oxygen is discriminations
Every knee shall bow
In solidarity with those protestors demanding justice in ‘this-crime-nations’
Every knee shall bow
In defiance of the oppressive status quos in the society
Every knee shall bow
In respect for those who dream and strive for equality
Every knee shall bow
In support of Black people who are beautifully made in God’s equal image
Every knee shall bow
In giving up our privilege and identifying with the powerless in our global village
Every knee shall bow
In anger at the silence of people in the face of injustice now
Every knee shall bow
In prayer for peace, for equity, for justice, for action, for forgiveness, for grace and for love.
