What to do? What to do?

A woman runs naked through the jungle
Carrying her baby trying not to stumble
They were bathing in the river, but when the soilders came
The fear she felt over powered any and all shame

A 10 year old boy holds his baby brother
Recently orphaned now all they have is each other
Their faces in shock it happened so fast
Unable to explain the horrible bomb blast

A peasant farmer feds himself and family pesticide
The only way to escape starvation, suicide
All the debt, failed crop, attempt after attempt
Loan after loan all the bank money spent

What to do? What to do? I ask God's people
But redemption is not located under a church steeple
Free your mind, God taught us to love
Wise as a serpent, humble as a dove
