Children Of War Lyrics

There’s not a mother in this world who would watch her child,
Cry in the street stand and watch her weep
There’s not a mother in this world who wouldn’t give
Up her own life for the life of her child
There’s not a mother in this world who wouldn’t be
Happy to have a home for her family
Where are your homes where are your families
What will you eat today where will you sleep

Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little justice can we spare a little peace
For the children of war
Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little love can we spare a little prayer
For the children of war

Is there a father in this world who would not
Try to provide for his children and his wife
Is there a father in this world who would want to be
Locked up in a cell away from his family
Is there a father in this world who would not defend
Justice and rights till the very end
Where are your jobs where is security
Where is freedom when will you all be free

Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little justice can we spare a little peace
For the children of war
Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little love can we spare a little prayer
For the children of war

There’s not a child in this world who should have to grow up
Living in fear drowning in despair
No child in this world should be deprived of an education
And every child in this world would want to play
In a safe community having fun running free
We pray for you children Lord ease their pain
And give them strength to go on day by day

Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little justice can we spare a little peace
For the children of war
Oh people of the world
Can we spare a little love can we spare a little prayer
For the children of war
