Crying for New Orleans

Oh how I've cried, and I really don't know why
Each day all the scenes of distruction seem unreal
I can't pull myself away from the pictures of this place
All the pain and the hurt, I can't imagine how they face
How they cry and stay strong, know not where they belong
In a world, all alone, they can only remain strong
Can you see how they long for the morning to erase
This the pain and the hurt , get them out of this place
Oh, how I've cried, and I really don't know why
In my thoughts, on my mind,
Hoping God will show his grace.
