The same sun that rises over castles and welcomes the day Spills over buildings into the streets where orphans play And only You can see the good in broken things You took my heart of stone, and You made it home And set this prisoner free

About This Quote

The sun is a powerful force, and it can be seen in many ways. The sun rises over the castles and the homes of the rich and powerful, but it spills over into the streets where orphans play. It is equally visible to anyone who looks to see it. When we look at someone who has been abused or mistreated, we must see the good in them and see that they deserve the same love and respect we give ourselves.

We must not allow ourselves to treat them any less than we would our own children. We owe them the same compassion and kindness we would show our own children.
