Giants Among Us


There are giants among us my friend

Hidden in the frames of women and men

Some of their stories are told, some we’ll never know

But it hardly matters to them


O sing of Irena’s brave deeds

Of the children she valiantly freed

And the lives that were spared when she chose to care

And think less of herself than of these


There’s a world so distraught and deranged

Hearts filled with fear and broken by pain

But despair and distrust break down into dust

When a brave soul decides it must change


So look in your heart and you’ll find

What it is only you can provide

Decide once and for all that you’ll answer the call

To give love from a heart opened wide (repeat verse two)



Irena Sendler (Feb. 15, 1910 - May 12, 2008)
