Hymn - Let justice roll down

Let justice roll down like a river,
let justice roll down like sea,
let justice roll down like a river,
let justice begin through me.

Justice for all who go hungry,
crying to God to be fed,
left in a world of abundance
to beg for a morsel of bread.

Let justice roll down like a river,
let justice roll down like sea,
let justice roll down like a river,
let justice begin through me.

Justice for those who are homeless,
victims of warfare or need,
trapped on the borders of no-where,
lost in the canyons of greed.

Let justice roll down like a river,
let justice roll down like sea,
let justice roll down like a river,
let justice begin through me.

Justice for all who are powerless,
yearning for freedom in vain,
plundered, and robbed of their birthright,
silently bearing their pain.

Let justice roll down like a river,
let justice roll down like sea,
let justice roll down like a river,
let justice begin through me.
