Fatherless

They left, the men who belonged to all of those frightened families
Gone, lost in the cold, bleak world that is war
Some came home, many died
Those families, left without men to guide and teach them
They became the fatherless

Again, weeping at night, the children cried out for what they had lost
Hope, taken away in darkness and night, never seen again
Brutality robbed them of the life they should have had
But there was a design to save them
Save the fatherless

There is one, from the beginning of time, who has been what they need
Arms, encircling those in need of a leader, a man, a friend
He is there now, beginning to penetrate
the Berlin Wall that is around thier hearts
Break down the wall to reach the fatherless

Hope comes to a dark nation in the form of a man
He brings life through his chosen ones, sent to love
Love goes out and reaches the fatherless
Rise up! Carry them out of the depths of darkness
and bring the fatherless home

I write this out of my heart for the nation of Germany. They have been torn and broken by war and rendered fatherless physically and spiritually. They are a lost nation whom God desires to rise up and make a powerful light. I am going to the fatherless.
