I Saw Jesus on the Lawn Last Night

from Somewhere in the Back of My Heart by J.P. Cormier

/

about

I was horrified to see the reports of a cross being burned on the lawn of an inter-racial couple in Hants Co. Nova Scotia about 2 years ago. It haunted me as someone who has lived in the deep south of the USA where racial hatred is still so prevalent. It wasn’t kept in the front pages long. Pretty soon it was gone and you could hear a collective sigh from the people of this region when it disappeared. I decided we should never forget this event. It’s the only way we’ll prevent it from happening again. This is for Shayne and Michelle. Thanks to my songwriting soulmate Susan for her heart and beautiful lyrics.
