THE POOR AND THE PAINED

Spare a thought for the poor and the pained  
They can't get work for they are untrained 
Queuing for handouts from the good folk of town  
Always remain optimistic and try not to feel down 

The poor have clothes that are tattered and torn
The pained suffer daily since the day they were born 
Both meet by the church at exactly ten past ten
Hoping for a better life to happen once again 

There for the grace of God go I  
Seeing them there you try not to cry 
The poor and the pained I wish I could do more
It can't be right living like that I'm certain and sure
