[Verse 1: Sinéad O’Connor]

In the name of

And by the power of

The Holy Spirit

May we invoke your

Intercession for

The Children of England

Some of whom have seen

Murder so obscene

Some of whom have been taken

[Refrain: Sinéad O’Connor]

Let not another child be slain

Let not another search be made in vain

[Verse 2: Sinéad O’Connor]

Jah forgive us

For forgetting

Jah help us

We need more loving

See the teachers

Are representing you

So badly

That not many can see you

[Refrain: Sinéad O’Connor]

Let not another child be slain

Let not another search be made in vain

[Verse 3: Sinéad O’Connor]

Jah calls the ones whose

Beliefs kill children to

Feel the love of you and be healed

And may we all cry too

For representing you

So badly

So badly

[Verse 4: Sinéad O’Connor]

Jah forgive us

For forgetting

Oh, Jah help us

To be forgiving

The teachers

Are representing you

So badly

That not many can see you

[Refrain: Sinéad O’Connor]

Let not another search be made in vain

Let not another child be slain
