Lyrics Matthew West

Matthew West

One Less

There's a child

Been abandoned out on the street

Now she's waiting for someone to be her miracle

There's a wife

Somewhere halfway around the world

Begging God for a litte girl she can call her own

Well, worlds collide

And colors fade

And a man and wife

Brought their little girl home today

And there's one less

One less

One less broken heart in the world tonight

Yeah, there's one less

One less

There's one less broken heart in the world tonight

We are called

To the widows and the orphans

But it's easy to ignore their silent cryes

Oh, but every single time

Somebody reaches into the darkness

Makes a choice to help the helpless

They let mercy save a life

And there's one less

One less

One less broken heart in the world tonight

Yeah, there's one less

One less

Yeah, there's one less broken heart in the world tonight

Well the truth is we are all the orphans

But love has left the 99 just to find the one

So let worlds collide

Colors fade

Let your life

Be the miracle today

One less

One less

One less broken heart in the world tonight

Tonight I know there's one less

One less

One less broken heart in the world tonight

One less child without a home

One less birthday gone forgotten

One more soul rising from the bottom

One less night alone

One less child without a home

One less birthday gone forgotten

One more soul rising from the bottom

One less

One less

There's one less broken heart in the world tonight
