For Our Children

**This brand new "Tripledemic" is definitely worrying me,
Especially for our children, who are sick as they can be.
Infections like Coronavirus, RSV & the Flu,
It's hitting our kiddos so much more, how much must they go through?

**For example our daughter Gracie, her cough is getting worse,
Both us moms don't get, why she has this curse.
For we have truly done our best, by trying every med,
Is there absolutely anything to be used as treatment instead?

**And every time our Gracie coughs, you can see it in her eyes,
That her pain is now unbearable, we can feel it when she cries.
But I just hope that very soon, our babies will suffer no longer,
And find new treatments that could be done, before this mess gets any stronger.

**And as parents from this moment on, we need a miracle today,
For something to heal our children, & make their suffering melt away.
So Lord right now for our children, who've been suffering from this curse,
For our children we need a miracle, so this Tripledemic will reverse.
