I am war,
I wonder why I am war,
I hear screams and shouts,
Cries for mercy all around me,
I see violence,
I want to kill,
I am WAR.
I pretend that I overwhelm the world,
I feel angry, vicious, and evil,
I touch death,
I worry I will be taken away from the
battle by peace,
I cry somebody has stopped the war,
I am dying.
I understand I am evil and mean,
I scream I AM WAR,
I dream I have overcome the peace,
I try to kill the peace,
I hope that I can,
I am war.

With the church
And with the steeple
Help the people
Help the people.
With the help of other people
Help the church
And help the steeple.

It's down to you too!
People are starving,
People are crying,
People are suffering,
People are dying.
The world is not
How we want it to be,
But we can change the world,
It's not just up to me!
So help Christian Aid
And help people's lives.
Help the world
And help people survive.
Beth, 13, from Stokes Poges, England
People are dying,
People are suffering,
People are starving
'Cos they have no food,
They have no money,
They have no homes.
You can help!

Fair trade,
Always helping.
Iam helping too,
Really saving people.
Trade helps,
Really doing it.
Always going,
Do people have to suffer?
Every thing, fair trade is.
Abbie from Paignton, England
I heard people cry
I saw people hurt
I listened to the
worries of others.
I saw people hurt
I listened to the
worries of others.
The world's a cruel place
For some human beings
But you can make it better.
Just think.
If you save the lives of others
You'll hear people laugh
You'll see people smile
You'll listen to people play.
So go, make a difference
And save a life today!
Emily, 11, Texas in the USA
