thoughts

While women weep as they do now, I'll fight; While
little children go hungry as they do now, I'll
fight; While men go to prison, in and out, in and
out, as they do now, I'll fight; While there is a

upon the streets, While there remains one dark
soul without the light of God, I'll fight I'll
fight to the very end!
