Ngayong Gabi

We live in a world that's overflowing
So many things that are new and beautiful
But in the midst of our abundance
So many people are down and out

On the side of the street, on a little cardboard mat
A child will be laid down to sleep in the cold
Tonight, ten kids will leave this world
Because of sickness, hunger, and lack of love

Now, more than ever, we’re feeling
The blessings and the burdens of progress
But in the midst of our busy lives
I hope we always remember

And before we drift off to sleep
In our prayers and our hopes...

Hear the cries of the little ones
And stop the wars and the cruelty
Every moment, ten kids will leave this world
Because of sickness, hunger, and lack of love

Tell every heart that's ready to listen
As long as justice doesn’t prevail
Tonight, ten kids will leave this world
Because of sickness, hunger, and lack of love

Tonight, ten kids will leave this world
Because of sickness, hunger, and lack of love
