One less

There´s a child
Been abandoned on the street
Now she´s waiting for someone to be her miracle
There´s a wife
Somewhere halfway around the world
Begging God for a little girl she can call her own
Well, worlds collide, and colors fade
And a man and wife brought their little girl home today
And there´s one less
One less
One less broken heart in the world tonight
We are called
To the widows and the orphans
But it´s easy to ignore their silent cries
Oh, but every single time
Somebody reaches into the darkness
Makes a choice to help the helpless
They let mercy save a life
Well the truth is we are all the orphans
But love has left the ninety-nine
Just to find the one
One less night alone
One less child without a home
One less birthday gone forgotten
One more soul rising from the bottom
One less
One less
There´s one less broken heart in the world tonight
Been abandoned on the street
Now she´s waiting for someone to be her miracle
There´s a wife
Somewhere halfway around the world
Begging God for a little girl she can call her own
Well, worlds collide, and colors fade
And a man and wife brought their little girl home today
And there´s one less
One less
One less broken heart in the world tonight
We are called
To the widows and the orphans
But it´s easy to ignore their silent cries
Oh, but every single time
Somebody reaches into the darkness
Makes a choice to help the helpless
They let mercy save a life
Well the truth is we are all the orphans
But love has left the ninety-nine
Just to find the one
One less night alone
One less child without a home
One less birthday gone forgotten
One more soul rising from the bottom
One less
One less
There´s one less broken heart in the world tonight
