Children of War - חמל

Hebrew words…

And the synagogues are all filled with orphans
From the innocent, the holy and the loved
Oh Hashem have mercy from above
On the children, the children that you love

Hebrew words…

Oh when, oh when will that day come
Oh Hashem have mercy from above
On the children who’s parents gave their blood

Hebrew words…

For soon, for soon that day will come
How it always seems to be the darkest
Right before the light of the morning sun

This brought tears t my eyes...
when I see men, women, & children fighting just for a chance to survive & live in their own land that G-d gave to them. When I see the crying of soldiers and such intense saddness & pain, my heart goes out them. If I could only be there to share their burden.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Ps.122:6

A tribute to the Palestinians? Half my family is dead thanks to the terrorist network's unceasing hatred of all things Jewish. As a result of liberal left-wingers, I also didn't get to raise my remaining living children. Anonymous, what kind of tribute would you ask a Jewish mother to make for the Palestinian cousins who only want to slaughter us? I think you are a little misguided, and not living in reality.

children as victims of war
How about ' a tribute to our brothers, sisters and cousins in the middle east'. Our cousins, being the Palistenian children. They are family as well.
