Never Harm the Children

We must never harm the children For that ruins our tomorrows It fills the world with misery And compounds all our sorrows We must never harm the children For they harbor all our dreams They represent the future That we pray will be secure We must never harm the children It should be quite apparent To build the world we hope for We must be a better parent If the world does cause you grief And you truly need relief Go buy yourself a boulder And beat that into sand But never harm the children For should you choose to do so The truth from which you can’t hide Come judgment the gates won’t open wide We must never harm the children They are more precious than jewels and gold And if you hold them closely They can warm you in the cold We must never harm the children To know that you have won Just look upon the smiles, Of your grandchildren having fun. We must never harm the Children
