The angels up in heaven cry
For all the babies that will die
Ere all their lives have yet begun
In agony as one by one
They feel the thrust of surgeon’s knife
Before the ending of each life.
Our dearest Lord, have mercy on
These tiny victims that are gone
Help all who’ve suffered from the crimes
To rise again in kinder times
There find the promise of God’s love
And help from angels up above !
