For The Sake Of Our Children by Ohio Valley Choir Festival

A beautiful proformance of God Save The Children. My oldest daughter Alexis was in this choir and she made her father very proud. I was touch and encouraged that a public school did praise music and that the community supports it.


O God save the children.
Shelter them with Your loving arms.
May Your angels guard and protect them we pray

O God save the children.
Shelter them with Your loving arms.
May Your angels guard and protect them we pray.

Victimae paschali laudes (repeated)
-We bring before You the tribulations of the world
The violence and the pain
Human greed in justice all hatred and strife.

O Lord, stablish peace on earth.
Bind us with a band of unity.
We pray
O Lord, we pray

Mors et vita duello (repeated)
-Children are dying all across the land
Victims of war and disease.
Father "Do you feel their pain, when they are killed by the sword of the enemy?"

"Can You hear the mothers cry in agony who hold the suff'ring children in their arms?"

Tell me, "Who has seen such sorrow?"
O Lord we pray for Your justice and peace.

People rise up,
Pour out your hearts unto the Lord.
May He send His wondrous love o'er all the earth and Grant us peace, that this world cannot give.
Let there be peace, never-ending peace.
Neverending (repeated) Peace.

O God save the children
Shelter them with Your loving arms.
May Your angels guard and protect them we pray.
O Lord we pray!

@rads777 I just found the lyrics and realize I had the title a little bit wrong. I corrected it.

Thats why I felt the need to post it. I applaud the music director for doing such a thing and I encourage everyone to do the same. If you see anything in the secular world acknowledging God and praise, they should be encouraged and promoted. We can not just sit and complain when it's taken away. We simply MUST reward those around us with the courage to praise him publicly and teach our children to do the same.

i was surprised that a public school did this...most schools wouldnt even give a second thought about praise songs.
