Send them to Us – v7

As Christ said to the people
send them, the children
the outcasts, the others,
have them come unto me.
Those who are oppressed
those unwanted, cast off,
from other nations;
Those who want to be free
those who are children,
send them to me.

We continue as a people
to call those who are unwanted
from other nations
to come to these shores.
Send them to us
into our arms, as a nation;
Those who are cast off
abandoned, unwanted,
send them to us.
