Mary Nagy - We Care

What is it that you tell them?
What can you even say
to those that have been terrorized
as their lives were washed away?

I wish that I could reach them.
To let them know I care.
Of money I have little
but, what I have I'd share.

I'd gladly give compassion.
That's what they need the most.
I'd let them stay with me tonight.
I'd be a gracious host.

I doubt they'll ever know me
or just how much I care.
My heart so aches for those in pain.
The suffering's everywhere.

How do you help these people
that lose all that they own?
Just try to let them know you care
and that they're not alone.
