I Have Seen

Observing human suffering, a sense of compassion arises in the heart, leading us to wish to take upon ourselves the suffering of others.

I have seen a mother cry, Clutching her child as bombs fell high. Smoke and dust, a shattered street, Nowhere to run, nowhere to keep.

I have seen a man grow thin, Fighting a war he’ll never win. Not with bullets, not with knives, But with hunger in his eyes.

Oh, I know, I know your pain, I hear your cries in the pouring rain. If I could, I’d take it all, Bear the weight so you don’t fall.

I have seen the fever burn, A father’s hands too weak to turn. Doctors gone, no cure to find, Only prayers left behind.

I have seen the waters rise, Take a home before their eyes. Brick and board and love washed clean, Like it had never been.

Oh, I know, I know your pain, I hear your cries in the pouring rain. If I could, I’d take it all, Bear the weight so you don’t fall.

I have seen the fear take hold, When voices break, when hands grow cold. No light to guide, no justice near, Only silence built on fear.

I have seen the years go fast, People lost, their stories passed. Still the world spins just the same, Forgetting faces, forgetting names.

Oh, I know, I know your pain, I hear your cries in the pouring rain. If I could, I’d take it all, Bear the weight so you don’t fall.

But I’m just one, just flesh and bone, With hands too small to hold it all alone. Still, if I can ease the load, I’ll walk beside you down this road.

I have seen the fear take hold, When voices break, when hands grow cold. No light to guide, no justice near, Only silence built on fear.

I have seen the years go fast, People lost, their stories passed. Still the world spins just the same, Forgetting faces, forgetting names.

Oh, I know, I know your pain, I hear your cries in the pouring rain. If I could, I’d take it all, Bear the weight so you don’t fall.

But I’m just one, just flesh and bone, With hands too small to hold it all alone. Still, if I can ease the load, I’ll walk beside you down this road.
