We cannot know the plight of man
We cannot know their sorrow deep
Till we have walked the paths they’ve trod,
Till we have slept where they do weep.
We cannot know the tears that fall,
We cannot understand at all
Till we have borne their burdens great,
Till we have lived through such a fate.
O foolish men who take no heed
To starving children and mothers’ cries!
Will we not heed the call of these
Until too many fall and die?
God came for all.
Do we come for any?
Or do we simply walk away
Closing our eyes, forgetting still
…remember what you have seen today.
