Alone

Who will love this child
When others turn away
Who will be there to sacrifice
Turn darkness into light, and
Wipe away the tears each time they fall.

And who will love this child
So lost and all alone
Do we pretend we cannot see
How desperately she needs
The comfort and the peace that love can bring

And if we close our hearts
To the cry of a child in need

Who will care
For an orphan in the rain
Who'll be there
With comfort from the pain
