When we first heard this song, it really touched
home for us in so many many ways. It just pulled
at our heart strings and thought it should have
it's own page to honour the children who have
suffered at the hands of abusers. Our hope is
one day this page will not have to be here and
that abuse of any kind will not be tolerated.
There's no excuse for child abuse. Our hope is
you will find the song and lyrics below as
touching as we did. |

Dear Mr. Jesus, I just had
to write to you
Something really scared me,
when I saw it on the news
A story 'bout a little girl
beaten black and blue
Jesus, thought I'd take this
right to you
Dear Mr. Jesus, I don't
understand
Why they took her mom and
dad away
I know that they don't mean
to hit with wild and angry
hands
Tell them just how big they
are I pray
Please don't let them hurt your children
We need love and shelter from the storm
Please don't let them hurt your children
Won't you keep us safe and warm
Dear Mr. Jesus, they say
that she may die
Oh I hope the doctors stop
the pain
I know that you could save
her and take her up to the
sky
So she would never have to
hurt again
Please don't let them hurt
your children
We need love and shelter from the storm
Please don't let them hurt your children
Won't you keep us safe and warm
Dear Mr. Jesus, please tell
me what to do
And please don't tell my
daddy
But my mommy hits me, too.
Please don't let them hurt
your children
We need love and shelter from the storm
Please don't let them hurt your children
Won't you keep us safe and warm
