What progressive Christians discover in this new song
Religious music for progressive faith should address issues that are relevant today. “Who Will Weep” is a song of compassion for refugees. It uses imagery from Jesus’ parable of the children crying out in the marketplace to tell the story of the SS St. Louis, a ship that sailed near the coast of Florida in 1939 with more than 900 Jewish refugees on board fleeing from Nazi Germany. Listen to the song, find out the tragic fate of the refugees, and consider the story’s lesson for us today.
