She’s lying in her cradle,
Waiting for someone to care,
Needing someone to notice,
That she has a life to share.
Few know she’s born and waiting.
Few stop to open their eyes.
Who now will stop and listen?
Who now will care that she cries?
The God who sees the sparrows,
He calls His children to war,
Gives us His love and power
To fight for the weak and poor.
Who will take up the war cry?
To rescue a precious girl.
To live out pure religion,
And love a beautiful pearl.
