With much of our country talking about President Obama and the issue of abortion I've had a song on my heart. I previously had a video posted here of the following song but it seemed to be causing a problem on the blog so I have removed it. The following are the lyrics of the song "Who will speak up for the little ones?" by Phil Keaggy
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Equal rights, equal time, for the unborn children.
Their precious lives are on the line,
How can we be rid of them?
Passing laws, passing out
Bills and new amendments.
Pay the cost and turn about,
And face the young defendants.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Many come and many go,
Conceived but not delivered.
The toll is astronomical,
How can we be indifferent.
Little hands, little feet,
Tears for Him who made you.
Should all on earth forsake you now,
But He'll never forsake you.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Forming hearts, forming minds,
Quenched before awakened,
For so many deliberate crimes
The earth will soon be shaken.
Little hands, little feet,
Tears for Him who made you.
Should all on earth forsake you now,
But He'll never forsake you.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
No matter the circumstances surrounding the conception of a child how does a wrong then be made right by committing another wrong?
God is the creator of life. Life is sacred.

ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more.There are so many excuses for it, but it's still murder.One if incest and rape.I have a cousin who was raped by her dad and even though even her own mother told her to abort, she didn't.She kept the baby and after she'd weaned him,her mother took care of the child while she continued going to school.
