Tears streaming down, her heart is broken
|
Because her life is hurting, so am I
|
He wears a frown, his dreams are choking
|
And because he stands alone, his dreams will die
|
So, humbly I come to you and say
|
As I sound aloud the warfare of today
|
Hear me, I pray
|
|
CHORUS
|
What about the children
|
To ignore is so easy
|
So many innocent children would choose the wrong way
|
So what about the children
|
Remember when we were children
|
And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show us
|
Where would we be today
|
|
Sir, where is your son
|
Where lies his refuge
|
And if he can't come to you, then where can he run
|
Such a foolish girl, yet still, she's your daughter
|
And if you will just reminisce your days of young
|
You see, it's not where you've been, nor what you've done
|
Because I know a friend who specializes in great outcomes
|
See His love overcomes
|
|
CHORUS (2 times)
|
|
Where would we be today
|
Where would we be today
|
Where would we be today
|
What about the the children
