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..
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...
