A cry for every child out who needs someone to love them. So many are alone, neglected, abused, or have no self-worth. They need to know that God loves them and so do we. Hope this song can be used to help them.

We see so many children today who really have nobody to care. On a missionary trip I saw precious little orphans that truly had no home.Yet they all smiled and were so glad for our visit. It made them feel really special. Yet many are in a home, but not a "real home" of love and care. Every child needs a family and people to encourage them. Let them know they CAN be anything they choose and we love them and believe in them. God bless our children. Iris & Tlee words by iris, music and vocals by tlee

For The Sake Of The Children (Tlee and Iris)

Refrain:
For the sake of the children who feel so all alone
Wanting someone just to love them, make them feel like they belong
So many precious children still waiting for a home
Open up your heart, for the sake of the children

Moved from place to place, little boys and little girls
Tears roll down their face, they're the orphans of the world
They close their eyes each night and pray to God above
Ever searching for the light that fills a heart with love

They've no security, as if no one really cares
They need a family, have so much joy to share
A sadness in their souls, yet a sparkle in their smile
It's time to take a stand for the sake of a child

(Refrain twice)
For the sake of the children who feel so all alone
Wanting someone just to love them, make them feel like they belong
So many precious children still waiting for a home
Open up your heart for the sake of the children
