A Lamentation: I Couldn’t Hear Nobody Pray
by The Rev. Maxine Allen
(Willie Glaster)
I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord!I heard the sounds of bullets…I heard the sounds of sirens…I hard the click and flash of cameras and cell phones…I heard the pounding of boots on the pavement…
(Deana Kirby)I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord!I heard the sound of moaning…I heard the beating of fists…I heard the whir of the helicopter…But, I couldn't hear nobody pray.
(Taylor Boone)
I hear the peck, peck, peck of computer keys…I hear the television in the background…I hear the announcer give the body count…I hear the young man crying…But, I couldn't hear nobody pray.
(John Flowers)I couldn't hear nobody pray, Lord!I couldn't hear nobody pray.Way down yonder by myself,And I couldn't hear nobody pray!
Surely God is Able
