"I Have A Dream" By Mike Fauls

I have a dream that one day this nation will lift up her weary head and fight for the freedoms that have been lost as if they are precious treasures.

I have a dream that one day the rich will step down from their pedestals of greed and self-idolization and reach their hand to their fellow American.

I have a dream that one day the jobs that are shipped over seas will come back to that mothers and father could feed their families and keep them warm in a time of cold-heartedness.

I have a dream that the unforgiving would forgive the unforgivable and accept them in their hearts as a lost child.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day Peace would wrap her loving arms around a weary and war-stricken world.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day the people of this nation would stand tall with a sturdy backbone and rebuild the American Dream.

This is my hope and faith. With this faith we will be able to change the face of this Earth to not one of strife and tribulation, but to one of honesty and kindness.

This will be the day when we can say with all honesty that God has truly blessed us.

When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
