MILLIONS OF CRIES

There is a man traveling down the road

Praying and crying for those with a heavy load

For the little ones who have faded into the mist

For the mothers who wonder what they missed

There are millions of cries that go upon the wind

They are the innocent and those who have sinned

In a quiet house a few blocks up the street

There lives a woman that you must meet

She's in pain for just around the bend

She hears her baby cry, the life that she did end

There are millions of cries that go upon the wind

They are the innocent and those who have sinned

In a park in the middle of the city

On a bench is a woman you must pity

She watches the children run and play

And wonders if her child would be like they

There are millions of cries that go upon the wind

They are the innocent and those who have sinned

There is a building here in your town

A mother to be; crying without a sound

Someone please help me her eyes plead

Her and a little one soon will bleed

There are millions of cries that go upon the wind

They are the innocent and those who have sinned

There are so many small ones up in heaven

They are so happy and wish you forgiven

Let us join together, you and me

And allow these innocents to BE

There are millions of cries that go upon the wind

They are the innocent and those who have sinned
