Opening Song: Roll Like a River by Joshua Miller, Mark Alan Schoolmeesters, and Tina Colón WilliamsLyrics:I thought by now things would be differentI thought by now things would be further alongIt’s been too long we’re singingChange is gonna comeWe need a change right nowYou’ve known oppression and injusticeYou’ve know the heartache of unanswered prayerYou begged Your Father take this cup from meThis is our prayer right nowThis is our prayer right nowLet Your kingdom comeLet Your will be doneLet Your justice roll like a riverEvery king and crownLet them be cast downTill Your justice rolls like a riverLet Your justice roll like a riverYou said our faith could move a mountainYou said that we could bind the powers of hellYou said Your Spirit causes darkness to fleeSpirit You’re moving nowSpirit You’re moving nowI see a change gon' comeI see Your justice roll like a riverI see Your kingdom comeI see Your justice roll like a riverPassage: 18 Woe to you who long for the day of the LORD! What will the day of the LORD be for you? It will be darkness and not light.19 It will be like a man who flees from a lion only to have a bear confront him. He goes home and rests his hand against the wall only to have a snake bite him.20 Won’t the day of the LORD be darkness rather than light, even gloom without any brightness in it?21 I hate, I despise, your feasts! I can’t stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.22 Even if you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; I will have no regard for your fellowship offerings of fattened cattle.23 Take away from me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.24 But let justice flow like water, and righteousness, like an unfailing stream.(Amos Musical Reflection: “Breathe on Me, Breath of God,” tune by Robert JacksonReflection Notes: TRENTHAM is a tune by Robert Jackson, an English composer during the nineteenth century. It fits perfectly with the text for “Breath On Me, Breath of God,” by Edwin Hatch; each phrase is allotted ample space for reflection.Prayer: O Lord, our Savior, who has warned us that you will require much of those to whom much is given; grant that we whose lot is cast in so goodly a heritage may strive together more abundantly by prayer, by almsgiving, by fasting, and by every other appointed means, to extend to others what we so richly enjoy; and as we have entered into the labors of other men, so to labor that in their turn other men may enter into ours, to the fulfillment of your holy will, and our own everlasting salvation; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. -Augustine
