The Abolitionists

The abolitionists
Are fully aware
Child trafficking exists
Almost everywhere

Monsters conspire new ways to take
Innocence... at any cost
The young are used in films they make
But, soon they will get caught!

Children, we did not know...
Nor did we hear you pray
But, now we do and so
We'll fund your rescue today

Brave men will be actors

You won't know who to trust

Until the doors open

And you feel love from us

Verse 1] The abolitionists know what the silence can hide, Where the powerful bargain and children are used. They devise new cruelties, take innocence by force, Make the young serve a story they never chose. [Pre-Chorus] But every locked door leaves a trail, And every lie can lose its veil. [Chorus] Children we couldn’t hear, we hear you now, We’ll stand beside you, we’ll find a way somehow. We’ll fund the rescue, help you make it through, There’s room to heal, and people here for you. [Verse 2] They put the young in films they make, Then think the truth will stay unseen. But brave hearts gather, records speak, And those who harm will face the reckoning. [Pre-Chorus] You may not know whom to believe, So we’ll be steady; we won’t leave. [Chorus] Children we couldn’t hear, we hear you now, We’ll stand beside you, we’ll find a way somehow. We’ll fund the rescue, help you make it through, There’s room to heal, and people here for you. [Bridge] No child is blame, no child is lost, No one should bear another’s cost. With care, with courage, truth made clear, We’ll build a safer world from here. [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Children we couldn’t hear, we hear you now, We’ll stand beside you, we’ll find a way somehow. We’ll fund the rescue, help you make it through, There’s room to heal, and people here for you. [Outro] We hear you now. We’re here with you
