Black hands Reaching out, touching white hands; Joined in peace. Blue eyes searching brown eyes; Finding love there. Brother loving brother, Holding the world with their love. People living in peace, Growing and expanding, Themselves and their ideas. God, this isnt just a dream Now its slowly, but surely 
coming true. Help us destroy the evil That will try to destroy us. Help us make peace Where it hasnt reached yet. And help us keep peace Where its slowly trying to settle. Help us build with our love Help us grow in Your love, Dear God 
as Ruben would want it to be. 
The flowers in the sanctuary were given by the Floyd County Democratic Party in honor and memory ofRuben Alexander Scott.
