Gjør døren høy
Gjør porten vid
De minste små har dårlig tid.
Små barn som skjuler seg i Aleppo.
Små barn som kommer til landet vårt, men som risikerer utsendelse
Små barn som legger seg i kveld med frykt for grådige hender
Små barn som gruer seg til i morgen
Små barn som trenger beskyttelse.
Små barn som trenger oss....
BLESS THE
CHILD.

Bless the
child you met on the street today
Bless
the child, forgotten,lost and far away
Bless the
child, please bother, he`s your brother
Bless the child
that seeks for refugee
Bless the
child that seeks comfort on your knee
Bless the
child, who cries out why, afraid to die
Bless the
child when beating starts again
Bless the
child in cold and pouring rain
Bless his
morning, bless his night, hold him tight
Bless the
child when help is out of sight
Bless the
child, and be his guiding light
Bless the
wounded child, stand up and fight.
Blessed be
the child who is born to night
Give him
rest
Give him
shelter
Please bother
He is your
brother
