THERE IS A POINT IN TIME WHERE EVERYTHING CHANGES

There are moments we all face in our own lives
They can be big ones or they just may be small
But during these moments something had changed

You may feel differently about your own life
You may have just found compassion for others
It may be the first time you saw life clearly

Maybe you had put the needs of others first
Maybe you worried only of what you had needed
Then suddenly you had cared for others first

And with this act you felt this feeling inside now
You had changed your own views & ways for the better
Embracing these moments of change in your own life

You Realized there were things that you could change
And so it was that day that I met the orphans & nuns
They were very poor and were begging for food & money

Seeing the Catholic nuns trying to save these lives
Touched my heart that had become very cold from war
I gave them my last forty dollars to buy the kids food

Then they invited me to visit their little orphanage
I discovered that these six nuns cared for sixty kids
Trying to give them some kind of normal life & love

It was after this experience that I wanted to help them
They had made me see I was there for much more than war
God had put me over there to help them save these kids

Those nuns and all those orphans helped to save me too as well for
I had become very cold hearted and had ice running through my veins
I was very bitter from all those events I had faced and been through
over there in that very deadly and very bitter war right up until I'd
met those nuns and the orphans from the Providence Orphanage.
