For Every Child

Copyright Michaela

For every child who cries at night,
alone with shame and pain and fright.
For every child who wants so much,
to only feel a gentle touch.
For the beaten child who cries in pain,
who tears run silent like the rain.
For the child used in satisfy lust,
who never learn to love or trust.
For the child taken from her home,
and made to feel so all alone.
For the child whose home is just a shell,
wher life becomes a living hell.
For the child who smiles but cannot feel,
because of scars to deep to heal.
For every child who yearns for love,
I hope and pray to God above,
to hear your cries and heal your pain,
and give you back your life again.
