      I know where you are coming from. This song brought tears to my eye when it came out. Granted it came out in 1987, but in 12015 I took a TIA-stroke this and many more songs I could not listen to without breaking down to. It took until 2020 that I could listen to the entire song and I still cry to it, but I can now. In the past, it was less than 10 seconds before I had to turn it off.

      You are correct. Horrific images in the past days of children dying and hundreds of thousands suffering and in pain in the Israel - Palestine war brought me back to this song. I feel it for the adults as well but my heart breaks for the children so much. They do not deserve those conditions of no food, no water, no shelter, no electricity , no human deserves that. Praying for the war to end and that peace and love can prevail. 🙏

God HAS NO son, no child, no wife and God doesn't want to have too.
      we have to know and recognize true and real God not our prejudice.
      i have ever met Jesus and he never wants to be worshiped by his brothers/ sisters the same human being and creature. i really want you all to know the TRUTH about Jesus not in satanic fikroh/ thought which menyesatkan/menjerumuskan / SYIRIK MENYEKUTUKAN TUHAN. 4:48,116.

This song reminded so strongly of my civil service when I had worked with disabled children, I listened to it for days almost without a break. Long story short - I cut all ties, started back at zero, became a teacher for special educations - and never looked back. Thanks White Lion! :)

I’d say the 1980s was the truest decade of rock and metal music in my opinion. Rockstars acted like rockstars, had groupies, amazing solos and melody. There will never be a decade like the 1980s though :( I wish this genre would become mainstream again it had the best rock and metal music

    This song has been a deep part of my heart for decades, but now with the horrendous suffering of children more than ever because of war and gender ideology, it resonates even deeper. The sadness is growing, but that "United world under God" is closer than ever, for The Lord keeps every single one of His promises.

    [LYRIC]
    Little child dry your crying eyes
    How can I explain the fear you feel inside
    'Cause you were born into this evil world
    Where man is killing man and no one knows just why
    What have we become just look what we have done
    All that we destroyed you must build again
    When the children cry let them know we tried
    'Cause when the children sing then the new world begins
    Little child you must show the way
    To a better day for all the young
    'Cause you were born for all the world to see
    That we all can live with love and peace
    No more presidents and all the wars will end
    One united world under God
    When the children cry let them know we tried
    'Cause when the children sing then the new world begins
    What have we become just look what we have done
    All that we destroyed you must build again
    No more presidents and all the wars will end
    One united world under God
    When the children cry let them know we tried
    When the children fight let them know it ain't right
    When the children pray let them know the way
    'Cause when the children sing then the new world begins
