Hope In The Human Heart

This is my homeland the place where I was born
And through my childhood was safe and secure
Like many children knew nothing of war
We were playing and laughing and playing.

Here´s another photograph of where we used to love
Our house was always a safe place to be
But now it´s gone only rubble and dust
We were hoping and praying and hoping
Oh all has gone.

This is my homeland the place where I was born
And like my father and his one before
We´ve raised our families and worked for them all
With our hopes and our dreams
And our hopes and our dreams.

And then came the thunder and so many people running
From the cities and the battlefields
And as the bombs rained down.

We were hiding from the bullets and the guns.

Oh can you imagine how it has been for us to be losing everything?
As the world stood still we would never know what every day would bring;
Every day every day every day.

So we came to your country you were there with open arms
To give shelter from the storm
We are doctors and lawyers
And all of us people like you.

Oh can you imagine how it would be for you to be losing everything?
As the world stood still you would never know what every day would bring
Every day every day every day.

There is always hope in the human heart
For better days ahead.
