MLK Interlude |
| I say to you this morning, that if you have never found something so dear and |
| so precious to you that you will die for it, then you aren’t fit to live |
| You may be 38 years old as I happen to be |
| And one day some great opportunity stands before you |
| And calls upon you to stand up for some great principle |
| Some great issue, some great cause |
| And you refuse to do it because you are afraid |
| You refuse to do it because you want to live longer |
| You’re afraid that you will lose your job |
| Or you’re afraid that you will b criticized |
| Or that you will lose your popularity |
| Or you’re afraid that sombody will stab you or shoot at you or bomb your house |
| And so you refuse to take the stand |
| Well, you may go on and live until you are 90 |
| But you’re just as dead at 38 as you would be at 90 |
| And the sensation of breathing in your life is but the belated announcement of |
| an earlier death of the spirit |
| You died when you refused to stand up for right |
| You died when you refused to stand up for truth |
| You died when you refused to stand up for justice |
