Stephen Schwartz - God Help The Outcasts lyrics

CONGREGATION: Salve, Regina Mater misericordiae Vita, dulcedo Et spes nostra, salve Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes In hac lacrimarum valle ESMERALDA: I don't know if you can hear me Or if you're even there I don't know if you would listen To a gypsy's prayer Yes, I know I'm just an outcast I shouldn't speak to you But still I see your face and wonder Were you once an outcast too? God help the outcasts Hungry from birth Show them the mercy They don't find on Earth God help my people They look to you still God help the outcasts Or nobody will CONGREGATION: I ask for wealth I ask for fame I ask for glory to shine on my name I ask for love I can possess I ask for God and his angels to bless me ESMERALDA: I ask for nothing I can get by But I know so many Less lucky than I Please help my people The poor and downtrod I thought we all were The children of God God help the outcasts Children of God Children of God
