JM Gerard - I want to hold you

Let's stop making the womb a tomb where life is doomed
To justify, we falsely assume abortion's
The answer, but its like a cancer that kills
While claiming to enhance her chances in life
Someone too influential once said It's essential
But that denies the potential of love finding a way
We say, "my body, my choice," but do you hear the voice
Within you, continue to question that choice
We twist the language, put the truth in anguish
Reproductive choice, rights, freedom, we want to heed 'em
But they're just words we use to abuse reason, like treason
Fit for people with nothing to believe in
We say you must have the right to control your body
But our logic is shoddy. From the moment of conception
There's a detection of a life inside you
Fearing you've been lied to

I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you

It's not just cells and tissue. I wish you
Didn't believe the deceived about the conceived
The cells are human, a new life is bloomin
Unique from the start, what are we doin
Never in your development was your life irrelevant
Your DNA today and when you were in utero, you should know
Would show they're from the same human being. Are you seeing
The reality of the criminality to deny this truth
What is life's value when we allow you
To choose to lose the life out of you
What gives one the right to choose to lose the life within
Don't one's rights end where another's begin
We need a correction to the deception that the
Mother's election overrules the right to life
To solve our plight, we've lost our sight, fearing the light
That shows wrong from right

I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you

God bless those who help women heal from the
Pain they feel years after the raw deal they were dealt
Because no one felt like helping in their crisis
So they did what everyone advises
There's hope after abortion, healing from the distortion
Of reality that produced the mentality that promoted
Evil as being good, replaced can for should
Then silenced the voice with no choice
We need to rethink the sexual revolution to find a solution to
The dilution of our mores which has led to more ways of
Denying our humanity and driving our insanity
Into the Culture of death
Now that I've told you, I want to hold you, not scold you
Show the love from above because His love is enough
Peace

I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
I want to hold you
