- Description:
- This audio recording features a church service at First Institutional Baptist Church in Phoenix, Arizona. The service proceedings include songs, an act of praise, a scripture response, prayer service, and a guest sermon delivered by Joseph E. Lowery. At 00:45:13, Lowery begins his sermon in which he focuses on the message of "singing the Lord's song in strange land", taken from Psalm 137. Lowery centers his remarks on defining what he means by a "strange land" and what he means by "singing the Lord's song". Lowery connects "singing the Lord's song" to driving positive change in politics, economic, and social conditions.
