We Are Bound Together

I have always loved the songs of James Taylor, but when I first heard his tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr., it made my heart soar. The lyrics are so beautiful, with such noble aspirations, such as the line “that we are bound together in our desire to see the world become a place in which our children can grow free and strong.”

It’s such a heart expanding song that I never tire of hearing it… especially when you get to the chorus. If you google it, you’ll come across multiple versions, such as this marvelous rendition by the Maccabeats and Naturally 7, singing together on the National Mall. I love the way the camera surrounds them and in the background, you see both the Lincoln Memorial and the MLKing Memorial.

Let us turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King…
