Lyrics:

1. I am standing waiting, waiting at your door.
One of hunger�s children from a billion poor.
Through you cannot see me, though I am so small
Listen to my crying, crying for us all.

2. I stand at your table, asking to be fed
Holding up my rice bowl, begging for your bread,
I stand at your school-room, longing just to learn,
Hoping that you�ll teach me ways to live and earn.

3. I stand at your clinic begging for vaccine,
I stand at your wash place where the water�s clean,
I stand at your office, beg the Head�s of State,
I am just a child, so I must hope and wait.

4. I stand at your churches, listen to your prayers,
Long to know a God who understands and cares.
If there is a God, God who loves the poor,
I�m still standing waiting, waiting at your door.
