Let Justice Roll

2021 recording by Fallen Angles with Dave Robinson

Let justice roll, like a mighty river
A-movin’ fast, down to the sea
It will erode, all our foundations
Touch every heart, and every nation
Let justice roll, like a mighty river
Through you and me, let justice roll

And those who live by rule of power
Will find their swords turned into ploughs
And all the rich, they shall be humbled
When all the poor reclaim this earth

Let justice roll, like a mighty river
A-movin’ fast, down to the sea
It will erode, all our foundations
Touch every heart, and every nation
Let justice roll, like a mighty river
Through you and me, let justice roll

And those who lie just once too often
Will find that they can’t know the truth
That lives among sisters and brothers
who hand in hand seek a rebirth

Let justice roll, like a mighty river
A-movin’ fast, down to the sea
It will erode, all our foundations
Touch every heart, and every nation
Let justice roll, like a mighty river
Through you and me, let justice roll

And the victims of some cruel repression
By those who fear new thoughts and visions
They shall not die and be forgotten–
No, they’re a living stream–Let justice roll

Let justice roll, like a mighty river
A-movin’ fast, down to the sea
It will erode, all our foundations
Touch every heart, and every nation
Let justice roll, like a mighty river
Through you and me, let justice roll

Bob Carty, 1950-2014
