Era
2000 and later
Brown eyed little one, dust on his cheek
No clothing on his back, he's fragile and weak
Hoping for someone to answer a prayer
To bring him sweet relief, to end the despair
Away upon a far off land are those of us who believe we can
CHORUS
Nourish the children
Feed a precious soul
Save a life from suffering
Then watch a child grow
Nourish the children
Love a child to life
Help them learn, laugh, and play
Show them we'll provide
We will nourish the children today
Frail baby girl cries in the night
There's no food or drink, no reason to smile
With some tender care maybe she'll be
Somebody who believes in changing destiny
Just one heart, one spirit saved, unites a cause we cannot forsake
CHORUS
