about

Composed and recorded in the summer of 2020, this Street Kyrie is bound in friendships formed at the Urban Theological Institute in Philadelphia and recorded in our homes and churches in Philly and Denver. A corresponding video at the George Floyd memorial site in Minneapolis was filmed in September and was part of the fall theological conference of the Rocky Mountain Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.

lyrics

A Street Kyrie
words and music by Joel Pakan © 2020 tangledblue.com

Kyrie Eleison, another way of sayin’
I can’t breathe; we can’t breathe.
Christi Eleison, another way to plead,
Momma, momma, come for me.
We must confess today. We have gone astray.
We must confess today. We have gone astray.

"Thoughts and prayers” as healing
as blank stares at white washed ceilings.
We come to the street, to pray with our feet.
Walking prayer as a posture that laments all we’ve lost here.
Through raised fists and chanting,
say their names, stop the lynching.
We must confess today. We have gone astray.
We must confess today. We have gone astray.
We cry justice today, Christ, come now we pray…

Kyrie Eleison, another way of sayin’
We come to the street, to pray with our feet.

With a new home in Minneapolis, Tangled Blue recorded "Advent" in 2008 and will finish a third project this year. ... more
