Lyrics

Is this a holy thing to see? In a rich and foodful land Babes reduced to misery Fed with cold amusements and Is that when I can enjoy a song? Can it be a song of joy? And so many children poor Where there's a lantern of poverty And the sun does never shine And there are fields of bleak and barren And there are ways of steeled thorns Is it winter of winter there Where the sun does shine Where the rain does fall? It can never hunger there Nor poverty attend upon
