Help the People

P. D. Kai Swigart © 1994

Sing a song of love, sing it people, choose your part,
Sing it for the lonely and the damned,
Sing it for the hate, sing it for the broken heart.

Speak a word of joy, speak it now for everyone,
Speak it to the saddened and dismayed,
Speak it to the hurt, speak it to the greiving one.

Help the people near you find a shelter in the storm,
Help the tortured children find a place that's safe and warm,
Help the battered women break the cycle of their pain,
Help the world find sunshine just beyond the falling rain.

Pray a prayer of peace, pray it for us all to know,
Pray it for the tortured and the slain,
Pray it for the wars, pray it for the earth below.

Live a life of hope, live it for the world to see,
Live it for the children and enslaved,
Live it for the lost, live it for those not yet free.

Help the people near you find a shelter in the storm,
Help the tortured children find a place that's safe and warm,
Help the battered women break the cycle of their pain,
Help the world find sunshine just beyond the falling rain.

Help the people near you find a shelter in the storm,
Help the tortured children find a place that's safe and warm,
Help the battered women break the cycle of their pain,
Help the world find sunshine just beyond the falling rain.

Help the people near you find a shelter in the storm,
Help the tortured children find a place that's safe and warm,
Help the battered women break the cycle of their pain,
Help the world find sunshine just beyond the falling rain.
