Helping Haiti

For there is no discrimination when catastrophe strikes; It is no time to fight. No race card of black and white. This is when people of all creeds and races need to unite. Sometimes I question, whether compassion for humanity still exists. Haiti use to be where the rich thrive, and the poor perish, We should quell their fears; Lord give Haiti the strength to fight their tears. Now the wealthy and poor are united at last, So let them assist each other and forget about the past, They may be battered and beaten, but they are not defeated. Haiti is where my Jesus is seated. But out of the destruction, hope will rise, For it's children I will always have tears in my eyes. Bring a prayer and a friend Let's support their cause and faith Lord give Haiti the strength, don’t let them wait While guided by Your light, it is the comfort they seek ‘Cause their scenario is bleak Come help if you can So stretch your hands from land to land
