God help the child who never had a shelter
God help them find the strength to carry on
Oh it’s a cold world out there for ignorance
Them children waiting around in the doorway’s of Cape Town
Them children in the hands of abuser’s
We know it’s not a fair game
Money, you’ve got lots of friends
Happy home and prefect pictures
There’re million little eyes
Staring at you on the borderlines
Of Africa
God bless the broken strings
For the child who’s got he’s own way
God bless the broken strings
For the child who suffers another day
God bless the broken strings
That led them straight to you
God help the child who’s living on the slum’s of Kibera
God help the man who gave that child a gun
Oh it’s not an easy road to walk on the fire
For a child to understand the flames
There’s no straight answer
For a child to led the soldiers
This boy is hungry and he ain’t got enough to eat
That girl is angry and she ain’t got no shoe to walk
God bless the broken strings
For the child who’s got he’s own way
God bless the broken strings
For the child who suffers another day
God bless the broken strings
That led them straight to you
God bless the broken dreams
Let every man help he’s brother
Let the world know there’s an orphan
There’re million little eyes
Staring at you on the borderlines
Of Africa
God bless the broken strings
That led them straight to you
