Heidi Mollenhauer - God Help the Outcasts (Cover by Ivana Callangan)

Details

Description

My shock due to the pandemic, COVID-19, has not worn off yet. My mind seems to manage to escape every time I want to deal with the feeling of uncertainty. In terms of creativity, I fear uncertainty the most, for it always leads me to a creative rut. As expected, since the lock down, I have been feeling uninspired. Sixth week in, finally I was able to record something! It's a song from one of my favorite Disney films, The Hunchback of Notre Dame. A song and prayer I dedicate to everyone suffering in any way during this pandemic. My heart goes to you all.

God Help the Outcasts
Heidi Mollenhauer, Chorus Of The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
From The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996)

I don't know if You can hear me
Or if You're even there
I don't know if You would listen
To a gypsy's prayer
Yes, I know I'm just an outcast
I shouldn't speak to You
Still I see Your face and wonder
Were You once an outcast too?
God help the outcasts
Hungry from birth
Show them the mercy
They don't find on earth
God help my people
We look to You still
God help the outcasts
Where nobody will
I ask for wealth, I ask for fame
I ask for glory to shine on my name
I ask for love I can possess
I ask for God and His angels to bless me
I ask for nothing
I can get by
But I know so many
Less lucky than I
Please help my people
The poor and downtrod
I thought we all were
Children of God
God help the outcasts
Children of God
