Our Children

What is happening to our children?
What is tearing up this land?
they need someone strong to lead them
Someone's got to take a stand

There's the child afraid of living
And the one who's scared he'll die
All so different but the truth is
All have asked the question, "Why?"

babies crying cause he's lonely
The kid who's eyes have turned to hate
And the fear is running rampant
Tell me, what will be their fate?

It's nearly time for Christmas
This should be what fills small heads
Not death and dying or disaster
Love should fill their life instead

So take a hand and put it in yours
Give a hug and don't let go
Put aside your cares for this night
Let's help these little ones to grow
