"The Prayer of the Children" by Kurt Bestor and Sam Cardon


Can you hear the prayer of the children?


On bended knee, in the shadow of an unknown room

Empty eyes with no more tears to cry

Turning heavenward toward the light



Crying jesus, help me

To see the morning light-of one more day

But if i should die before i wake,

I pray my soul to take



Can you feel the hearts of the children?

Aching for home, for something of their very own

Reaching hands, with nothing to hold on to,

But hope for a better day a better day



Crying jesus, help me

To feel the love again in my own land

But if unknown roads lead away from home,

Give me loving arms, away from harm



Can you hear the voice of the children?

Softly pleading for silence in a shattered world?

Angry guns preach a gospel full of hate,

Blood of the innocent on their hands



Crying jesus, help me

To feel the sun again upon my face,

For when darkness clears i know you're near,

Bringing peace again



Dali cujete sve djecje molitive?

(croatian translation:

'can you hear all the children's prayers?')

Can you hear the prayer of the children?
