Hearts cry out

The fallen sinner
Heart cries out
Desperate for love
Does any hear her?
Do they want to see?
Could be anyone of us...
You or me

The angry teenager
Heart crying out for love
Do you understand her?
Do you even care to listen?
Have we the right to blame?
Were we not...
Once the very same

The filthy drunkard 
In the gutter laying
Did you ever consider?
Who might be to blame?
What happened years ago?
Do you even care?
Who should call upon his name?

The dirty urchin
Begging in the street
Cold and hungry, distressed
Do you know her parents?
Do you judge her?
Without asking questions
Just the same

Each one is lost and lonely
Each one is desperate for love
Each one cries out in hunger
To our dear Lord in heaven above
Will you feed these children?
Of our dearest Lord...or will you?
Turn away your eyes...
Without even offering a kind word
