Analysis of The Pain of A young Child
What is this I hear screaming in my ear
Is it the pain of a young child who has cried their last tear
To many children left alone
To many children left without a home
To many families living in the streets
To many people ignoring their needs
Not enough food to go around
To help those in need when their down
Not enough clothing to keep them warm
Not enough shelter to keep them out of the storm
Open your hearts and see the light
I know that I have and I pray that you might
Rick Rhythm Williams
