My Plea For the Unborn

My plea for The Unborn
Written: by Tom Wright
February 2015

Oh Lord, 
That culminating fetal days
Be found replete,
And from abortion clinics,
Let expectant mothers abstain.
Cause each unborn,
To enter the outer world complete;

I know, that many debate, 
That life doesn’t begin at conception,
And therefore doesn’t end with abortion.
That it’s a woman’s body,
And thus her choice;
Lord, give us champions
To freely speak
For the fetus who has no voice.
