Verse 1
Am 
Very seldom if ever in
the history of the world
has a socio -political document
expressed in such profound, eloquent,
and unequivocal language
the dignity and the worth
of human personality.
This is the meaning of the
American Dream.
And we can't afford to stop now
because our nation has
a date with destiny.
Martin said to me, at that moment,
I experienced the presence of the divine
as I have never experienced him before.
It seems as though I could hear
the quiet assurance
of an inner voice saying,
stand up for righteousness,
stand up for truth,
and God will be at your side forever.
