There are children who just want to be loved

Frozen hands wishing to be gloved

Hungry mouths yearning to be fed

Tiny bodies heartbeats from being dead

What about us?

What about us?

We are problems wanting to be solved

We are waiting for someone different to get involved

We are the unwanted, the heartbroken, the impoverished

The homeless, the hurting, and the diminished

Please take our weary, outstretched hands

Oh, won't you take our outstretched hands?
