Red & Green Balloons - Let There Be Life

You created my innermost parts
You knitted me together in my mother's womb
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made
How wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well
My frame was not hidden from you as I was being made in secret
Intricately woven in the depths of the earth
Your eyes have seen my unformed substance
In your book were written all the days that were ordained for me
When as yet there was not one of them

I hear the sound of children crying
Beneath the ground, quiet yet loud
I hear their cry for love and mercy
A cry for life, just the chance to be
Who will speak for all the oppressed and needy
Who will be the voice for those who can't speak

I hear the lies people are telling
To drown out the cries of the ones they're slaying
I hear the sound of their silence calling
Let freedom ring, let it ring again
Let freedom ring, let it ring again
Who will speak for all the oppressed and needy
Who will be the voice for those who can't speak

Let there be life
Let there be life
Let there be life
Let there be life Cause love is always right
Love means life
Love means life

Who will speak for all the oppressed and needy
Who will be the voice for those who can't speak
Let there be life
Let there be life Cause love is always right
Love means life
Love means life

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves
Ensure justice for those being crushed
Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless
And see that they get justice
