If Only I Can Rise Up and Go There

If only I can rise up and go there
There to market place of Mercy
That I meet generous Charity, 
The wealthy merchant that she is
The hidden Samaritan none knows
With plenary powers of giving
If only I can reach there 
In her ears I would whisper
Names of those that go hungry
And those that are homeless
That misery dangles in their eyes
And football played in their bellies
All wants could vanish in horizon
With the setting sun
