A Life Is a Life
A life is a life no matter how small.
Today I cry for the unborn child
A baby who didn't make it at all
Still attached in the womb was a recall
That left the mother with out a child.
A life is a life no matter how small
A baby who's name never made it to land fall
Or to the live births to be filed.
A baby who didn't make it at all
Whose mother is wrapped in her shawl
Chilled.
A life is a life no matter how small
Oh! God. I know you'll consol
And help her rebuild.
She'll always remember a baby who didn't
Make it at all.
Yet, she'll be a mother again to a healthy baby
With a strong squall.
Then this mother will be fulfilled.
A life is a life no matter how small
I cry for a baby who didn't make it at all.
