found in silence
in the pain with the person who's
suffering tonight i'm asking you to hear
the quiet
the silence the silence of broken dreams
the silence of watching others and the
silence that hides behind the forced
smile

person tonight
you might be such a person you know
it's no good if somebody doesn't see the
face of bonolov
the founder but in the last 23 months
47 syrian couples
got that dream so before i go around i'm
going to raise
as much money as you told me hashem is
going to allow me
and i will do the best job i can for you

tonight
before you decide what you're going to
give
just have in mind a person that you know
or more that are struggling just
feel that this person's in front of your
face
and they're crying and you literally
physically
are going to go over and wipe clear off
their face
