Torn from their families <br />Mothers go hungry <br />To feed their children <br />But children go hungry <br />There's so many big men <br />They're out making millions <br />When poverty's profits <br />Just blame the childrenIf there's a God in heaven <br />What's he waiting for <br />If He can't hear the children <br />Then he must see the war <br />But it seems to me <br />That he leads his lambs <br />To the slaughter house <br />And not the promised landDying for causes <br />They don't understand <br />We've been taking their futures <br />Right out of their hands <br />They need the handouts <br />To hold back the tears <br />There's so many crying <br />But so few that hearIf there's a God in heaven <br />Well, what's he waiting forIf there's a God in heaven <br />What's he waiting for<br /><br />MTHOKOZISI NTOKOZO MAPHUMULO<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-there-s-a-god-in-heaven-what-s-he-waiting-for/
