"They took your life, they could not take your pride, In the name of Love"
"In The Name Of Love" by U2
One man come in the name of love One man come and go One man come, here to justify One man to overthrow
In the name of love One more in the name of love In the name of love One more in the name of love
One man come on a barbed wire fence One man he resist One man washed on an empty beach One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love One more in the name of love In the name of love One more in the name of love
Early morning, April four Shot rings out in the Memphis sky Free at last, they took your life They could not take your pride
In the name of love One more in the name of love In the name of love One more in the name of love
Spoken: For the Reverend Martin Luther King - saint.
In the name of love One more in the name of love In the name of love One more in the name of love
In the name of love

2. Who will take up his torch? |

The loss of his spirit cannot be measured here on Earth, but I'm sure it shines brightly in Heaven. O8)

And my son will thank you, after he gets over the fact that he had to learn something on his day off from school!

At least, not until after the operation.
I'm a very good DAD.

9. While you're at it, download his "Beyond Vietnam" speech, as well. |
|
Dr. King delivered it exactly one year to the day before he was murdered--April 4, 1967. You never hear about that speech anymore!

13. 10:00 or 11:00 at night. |
|
Certainly not "early morning," if that's what you were implying.

I always take US-80 through town just to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge and cry.
