We Will Defend
We will defend those who cannot defend themselves
The poorest of the poor the horribly vulnerable
We won’t ignore the slavery and violence
We won’t ignore this grave injustice
We’re sorry for all the pain and misery
We’re sorry for all the broken bodies
We won’t pretend that everything is ok
We will defend those who cannot defend themselves
We won’t ignore our neighbor who’s been beaten
We won’t walk by when we see you lying in the road
We will rise up we’ll care for you as our friend
We will reach out to lend a helping hand
We’re sorry for all the broken boundaries
We’re sorry that you cannot find safety
We won’t pretend that everything is ok
We will defend those who cannot defend themselves
We won’t ignore you because you live across the sea
We won’t ignore you because you’re hidden from our view
We won’t ignore the poverty and violence
We won’t ignore this grave injustice
