POEMS
WAR
War is painful
Children are dying
But war starters out of greed denying
Red of the blood,
hopefully it comes ever good
They shoot, bomb and much more
and this goes so on.
Children are so thin,
their gaze is sad
Children get too little food,
this is not good.
(Made by Rachel Voordewind when she was 11 years)

New day
Lord, I thank Thee
For another new day,
I may live for Thee
let me be happy today,
And give love to others
Then this day be such as You meant
And tonight I can say:
That I this day,
Have touched and felt your attendance
(Jacqueline Voordewind)
◊
Don't give up
Don't give up
if everything is against.
Don't give up
if the sky is dark.
Don't give up
if all dreams in tatters fall
Don't give up
as other people giving up
Don't give up
if the situation is hopeless.
DON'T give up
because the answer is on the way,
because Jesus is greater than any need,
because the sun will shine,
because dreams can come true,
because there is hope for the hopeless,
because Jesus does not give it up.
So Never give it up!
(Sieberen Voordewind)
