WHY THE CHILDREN

WHY THE CHILDREN?

Why the children?

Tell me Lord

Why the children?

All I hear is

Its Gods will

 It’s because of our sins.

What, a parent’s agony?

Or a nations grief?

Please stop taking the children.

When will the debt be paid?

Floods and famine

Tsunami and tornado,

War and wrath

All take our young.

Is this your harvest Lord?

What is faith?

Why give prayers?

Will they keep our children safe?

You gave your son to save the world,

I just ask this

If children still have to die

Did your son die in vain?
