We talk about human rights
In words harsh and wild.
The most violated rights
Are the rights of a child.
With all the abortions
That’s very bad news.
In the U.S. we killed more babies
Than Hitler killed Jews.
We have animal rights
But may we never forget,
That the life of a child is worth more
Than the life of a pet.
We are much more concerned about children
In some foreign land,
Than our own dear children.
I don’t quite understand.
Tempers may flare
And abortions may mount.
But we as a nation
Must give an account.
Just open the Bible
And there you will see
Jesus loves little children.
He said, “Just bring them to me.”
We must repent of our sins,
Change the way that we live.
Then God up in heaven
Will surely forgive.
