We Care (For the Victims of Katrina)

What is it that you tell them? What can you even say to those that have been terrorized as their lives were washed away? I wish that I could reach them. To let them know I care. Of money I have little but, what I have I'd share. I'd gladly give compassion. That's what they need the most. I'd let them stay with me tonight. I'd be a gracious host. I doubt they'll ever know me or just how much I care. My heart so aches for those in pain. The suffering's everywhere. How do you help these people that lose all that they own? Just try to let them know you care and that they're not alone.
