Unwanted Children

when I looked into this Childs eyes 
I saw the hurt, the pain, and I began to cry. 
it was a house of despair 
the homeless and unwanted children 
all lived there. 

all their lives they searched for love 
and a place to live 
so much love they had to give. 
all they wanted or needed 
was a loving family. 

is this too much to ask from you or me? 

how can we go to bed, when they 
have no place to rest their heads. 
how can we expect these children to survive 
when we turn our backs 
and close our eyes. 

I heard adults say: why should I shed a tear 
for a child I did not conceive. 
why should I be the one to bereave. 

do we still not cry for the death of CHRIST? 
he was conceived by another. 
wouldn't you be proud 
to have been his father or mother? 

GOD put all these children on this earth 
more than gold I think they; re worth. 
let's get them out of that house of despair 
and show them all that we do care. 

a little step goes a long way 
and it'll be done day by day.
