Some kings rule their kingdoms sitting down Surrounded by luxury, soft cushions and fans But this King stood strong stood proud stood tall
When the driver told Rosa "Move to the back of the bus!" When the waiter told students "We don't serve your kind!" When the Mayor told voters "Your vote don't count!" And when the sheriff told marchers "Get off our streets!" using fire hoses, police dogs and cattle prods to move them along This King stood strong stood proud stood tall Speaking of peace of love and children hand in hand free at last free at last
When some yelled for violence For angry revenge An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth He stood his ground Preaching peace
And when some spit out hate He stood there smiling Spreading love Until it rolled like the sea across the land Sweeping away Jim Crow Breaking down the walls Ringing the bell Joyfully For Freedom
Until Standing on the mountain top They shot him Coldly Hoping to see him fall Hoping to put him away To bring him low
But this King even in death even today stands strong stands proud stands tall And we remember
About this page: I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D
Everybody needs a little sunshine, in your life Sometime, to brighten up your day Everybody needs a little sunshine, in your life Sometimes, if it's only but a ray Have you ever just needed a hug Or a pat on your back, feels so good to be loved Something so small can make all the difference In the world
