Matthew West - One Less lyrics

There's a child Been abandoned on the street Now she's waiting for someone to be her miracle There's a wife Somewhere halfway around the world Begging God for a little girl she can call her own Well, worlds collide, and colors fade And a man and wife brought their little girl home today And there's one less One less One less broken heart in the world tonight We are called To the widows and the orphans But it's easy to ignore their silent cries Oh, but every single time Somebody reaches into the darkness Makes a choice to help the helpless They let mercy save a life Well the truth is we are all the orphans But love has left the ninety-nine Just to find the one One less night alone One less child without a home One less birthday gone forgotten One more soul rising from the bottom One less One less There's one less broken heart in the world tonight
