Story Behind The Song
My daughter raised funds to travel and serve at a Kenya orphanage. The orphanage claims Psalm 72;12-14 as there verse. As I saw the pcitures on their website and read that Pslam--I was wrecked. I heard a song, and this is what came out. I have two versions, one guitar/male vocal and one piano/female vocal

Lyrics
There are distant lands where love is seldom shown
Where people are abandoned and unknown
There is a famine for peace and hope
And places love still needs to go
As the poor cry out, who will hear their call
Who will help the needy who have no one at all
Who will hold the child who's orphaned and alone
Love still has ten thousand miles to go
God hears the call from these distant lands
He will love them, but through our willing hands
The love of God is known as it is shown
When we touch the faces ten thousand miles from home
As the poor cry out, I will hear their call
I will help the needy who have no one at all
I will hold the child who's orphaned and alone
Because love still has ten thousand miles to go
Love still has ten thousand miles
Ten thousand miles
Ten thousand miles
Ten thousand miles..... to go
