problems

in places of devastation and doom:
help can arrive not too soon:

the basic necessities of life:
hold people in pain and strife:

famine leaves a child so weak crawling in the dirt:
children have lived with so much pain they have no more tears of hurt:

how can people in the world get by on so much less:
the world must help we cannot rest:

many of us have problems of our own:
but have we ever faced the life and death game of being hungry shelterless cold sick and alone:

no matter what problems each of us pocess:
we have problems of many others so much less:

many people on the world feel the deep dark cold and rain:
many people in the world must endure so much heartache and pain:

those of us in the world who have so much more:
we must help our neighbors at home and even on distant shores:

to help our fellow man:
you will feel happiness grand:

to reach out to help another in despair:
is how we should all liveshow with your heart you care:

thode who live a lifestyle of lush with luxury galore:
could reach out to others with so little so much more:

no matter who you are no matter where you stand:
touch a heart lrend a hand:
