Oh the masses fleeing from their war torn land

Oh the masses fleeing from their war torn land
Wandering homeless looking for somebody to understand
There are no more openings countries willing to take them in
This displaced exodus of victims trying to escape terrorism

Who will help them : these homeless, helpless band of refugees
All of us are feeling it and calling it such a shameful tragedy
Yet what will we do now as one people united under the banner of God
Will we close our eyes and wish them well along the road they trod?

Yes, who will help them and who will provide for them a place
They are all so hungry and all bare so much anguish on their face
See them the children and the aged ones so barely able to walk?
We all feel so sorry but that is only in the media and in our talk

Who will help them : these homeless, helpless band of refugees
All of us are feeling it and calling it such a shameful tragedy
Yet what will we do now as one people united under the banner of God
Will we close our eyes and wish them well along the road they trod?

What will we do then as we watch that scourge tear up their land
People are crying as they leave with very little possessions in hand
Exhausted and aimless as they walk and walk to who knows where
All of us watching claim to talk to God daily in our prayer??

Who will help them : these homeless, helpless band of refugees
All of us are feeling it and calling it such a shameful tragedy
Yet what will we do now as one people united under the banner of God
Will we close our eyes and wish them well along the road they trod?
