Make It Known
Oh, Lord,
Where were you?
When they in greed,
Took my only feed,
Down their tummies,
And my only son,
Down the stream,
To the bushes,
For something he did not?
Oh, dad,
My cry unheard,
Oh, mother,
Its a pain I can't bear,
Oh, love,
Despise me not,
For a man in tear,
Means not any fear.
Struggle alone,
Dear love,
Fight to the bone,
Soldier on,
Dear life,
Help her all along,
Me gone,
Dear wife,
Make it known,
I lived good, none for me to mourn.
