215 |
| Two hundred and fifteen |
| Two hundred and fifteen |
| Indigenous children who can’t come home |
| Two hundred and fifteen |
| How many more missing? |
| Indigenous children who won’t come home |
| Why did it take so long? |
| Revealing this ancient wrong |
| When mothers cried through countless nights alone |
| The church and the government |
| Complicit in violence |
| How could such savagery stay unconfessed? |
| If there’s a God in heaven, you’ve been used again |
| To subjugate, assimilate, eradicate the other |
| We’re Christian and Canadian yet now ashamed of both |
| We weep with the indigenous and stand with all who mourn |
| Why did it take so long? |
| Revealing this ancient wrong |
| The elders spoke but we refused to hear |
| The church and the government |
| Complicit in violence |
| How could something so evil happen here? |
| Two hundred and fifteen |
| Two hundred and fifteen |
| Indigenous children stolen |
