Little hands, shoeless feet, lonely eyes looking back at me
Will we leave behind the innocent to grieve

On the road, on the run when their lives have only begun
These could be our daughters and our sons

Just like a drum I can hear their hearts beating
I know my God won’t let them be defeated
Every child has a dream to belong and be loved

Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in your majesty
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free, shout Your name in victory
When we love, when we love the least of these
When we love the least of these

Break our hearts once again, help us to remember when
We were only children hoping for a friend, won’t you look around

These are the lives that the world has forgotten
Waiting for doors of our hearts and our homes to open

If not us, who will be like Jesus to the least of these
If not us tell me who will be like Jesus, like Jesus
To the least of these

Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in your majesty
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free, shout Your name in victory
When we love, when we love the least of these
When we love the least of these
We will love the least of these
