The wrongs that are heavy with age and brought
To the level of virtues, by mortal thought

Red with anguish his way has been. y n
This suffering brother of dusky skin.
For centuries fettered and bound to earth -
Slow his unfolding to freedoms birth.
Slow his rising from burden and ban
To I'LL the stature OF normal man.
You must give him his wings you tell him tn ny.
You must set the example and bid him try.
Let the white man pay for the white mans crme.-
Let him work in patience and bde Gods time.

RE has come through sorrow and pain and Voc.
And the cry OF his heart Is to know, to know.
