Watching the violence, helpless
an ache for a whole people
convulsing in revolution
living in the maelstrom
Defiant and courageous
torn from their past
seeking a world of promise
in the thing we hope will last
Watching the violence, helpless
a half a world away
praying for peace in that kingdom
let it come today
