SUFFER THE CHILDREN
(Eric Bogle) Chorus: Suffer the children to come unto me
The man that said that died on Calvary
And as we rejoice in this day of his birth
The children are suffering all over the earth
From African jungle to the hills of Vietnam
There's thin hungry faces, black, yellow, and brown
They're starving to death on their millet and rice
And they don't know Santa Klaus or Jesus Christ
Chorus
As you sit on the table at this Christmas time
And you stuff the roast ham and the turkey inside
Don't you think of the hungry in lands far away
Or the two hundred children that will die today
Chorus
