Adams, Yolanda - What About The Children? Lyrics
Tears streaming down, her heart is broken
And because her heart is hurting, so am I
He wears a frown, his dreams are choking
And because he stands alone, his dreams will die
So, humbly I come to you and I say
Please hear me, I pray
[CHORUS:]
What about the children
To ignore is so easy
So many innocent children will choose the wrong way
So what about the children
Remember when we were children
And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show us
Where would we be today
So, where is your son
and where lies his refuge
And if that young man can't come to you, then where can that young man run to
She's such a foolish foolish girl, yet still, she's your daughter
And if you will just reminisce on all the crazy things that you did when you were that young
You see, it's not where you've been, nor what you've done
Because I know a friend who specializes in great outcomes
See His love overcomes
[CHORUS:]
What about the children
To ignore is so easy
So many innocent children will choose the wrong way
So what about the children
Remember when we were children
And if not for those who loved us and who cared enough to show us
Where would we be today...
What about the children they need our help today
And what about the children they need us
more than ever more than ever more than ever
what about the childen where would we be today
where would we be today
what about the children
Where would we be today
Where would we be today
Where would we be today
What about the the children

This Song Bring The Tears 🙏🏾 For Our Children All Over The World
My favorite of Yolanda's songs. I always thought this song should have been so much more popular, she sings it perfectly - clear, very little straining of her voice, etc. Still my favorite of all of her songs.
Amazing voice very goog song
Yobama?

We are doing a praise dance with this song
Here in 2018
They really need us In this day
I'm spoiled and my mom doesn't care that I'm spoiled =|

This song pierces my very soul!!!! I was taken away from my biological mother immediately after I was born, and soon adopted by Mary and James Johnson. They are no longer with us, but I thank God for them. Yolanda sang it best!
Ugh! I randomly thought of this song and just thinking about it made me emotional. I grew up listening to this song and now as an early 20 something working in an elementary school in a low-income area, this song is making me cry so much right now just thinking about those kids.

Am I the only one that cries when I hear this song,...so much power in this. :")
This song definitely needs to be re aired on the radio. This generation needs it
No you are not, this song and the reality of the words breaks my heart everytime hear it
singing this song for children at the children's hospital.
never stop praying for the children, cover them with the blood of jesus
Welcome back to school mi children. Study n some of you already know....hit dem #book from there ground running. Please study....nothing is guaranteed n somebody lied to oiur #children. What bout dem children?
i sang this back in the day when I was a street performer, tears flowed next week I'm singing this in a play and I cry every time i hear this song because I know young people who have died since those days
I love this song because you think of all the children that are dying and parents dying and breaking up and all these thing it is hard for them to live like that now can we show love to them? Think what about the children
My school did a skit and we used this song!!! I <3 this song!!
This song has so much more meaning now.WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?
Love this song.
God bless all the children of the world.
It takes a village to raise a child. Do you best
BEAUTIFUL SONG!
This is a gem
There are an lot of folks that think about the children that deserve to wear the title "MOTHER" but receive no accolades. That is OK cause God already's knows where you're heart is...you are the folks that ask "WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?" Thank you for caring...I had a few of them during my upbringing that sought no reward, accolade nor trophy. They simply just cares. I love you for being God's caretakers. Happy Mother's Day to you.
I remember I used to LOVE this song when I was little
we have to remember the innocent children we have to protect them from harm danger ridicule and as much corruption as possible
I love this song....but it's no Never Give Up. She put her all into that song.
As a fosterparent and biological parent I feel this song speaks volumes to the children of today. As you listen may you be blessed.
I so love this song. It speaks the truth...
let's protect the children.
I am so glad that somebody appreciates the real jewels posted on this channel. Thank you so much for your comment. God Bless.
