let me feel justice
as your heartbeat
for the world,
that I might walk
step by step in time
with the rhythm
of eternity, drawing
from it the courage
to stand up and be counted,
help me to understand that
true justice is not about
revenge or retaliation
but an act of love and grace
that will not be held back,
teach me the deepest truth
that your justice sets me free
and names me worthy, and
even in my darkest days
you draw me into the light,
you fill me with your light,
I long to be your light,
your voice,
your love,
teach me to act justly,
to love mercy
to walk humbly with you...
Rhythms of grace
