lyrics

Neglected and abused cast aside like some unwanted Christmas Toy
Once he must have been a bundle of joy
But it seems so long ago to a lonely homeless boy

Who will love the children
When they’re far from home
Who will love the children
When they’re cold and alone

Families torn apart, crucified on a cross of broken hearts
Pushed from place to place, ridiculed and scorned
Locked inside detention camps for the crime of being born

Who will love the children
When they’re far from home
Who will love the children
When they’re cold and alone

Sleeping on the street, wondering what happened to her dreams
Once she wore her hair in braids and baby curls
But it seems so long ago to a lonely homeless girl

Who will love the children
When they’re far from home
Who will love the children
When they’re cold and alone

There’s a chapel on a hillside
And inside a sign that reads
“As you’ve done to the least of my brethren
You have done to me.”

about

Dan Sullivan Kalamazoo, Michigan

Some people like gardening, working on cars or woodworking. Others enjoy knitting, collecting stamps or coins. That kind of thing. I like writing songs.
