Haiti Partners Youth Choir sings a song about earthquake and moving forward. This has been part of their processing of the event and it’s aftermath. Most of these kids lost their homes and are sleeping outside in makeshift shelters.

Here are the words:

Haiti is my country,

But she almost perished,

We can never abandon her,

She is our country,

Even though the earth shook

and the mountains split,

we still stand in hope,

Haiti has not perished,

Chorus: Haiti is my country, she almost perished. We will never abandon her because she is our country.
