Lyrics
You’ve put your family life on hold
To Care for the sick, the weak and old
They are the sacrifices of the heart
They are the sacrifices of the heart

When virus stalks and death comes near
You hold their hands and calm their fear
You give the Sacrifices of your heart
You Give the sacrifices of your heart

Your kindness, time and endless care
Your devotion and the love you share
Are the sacrifices of your heart
They are the sacrifices of your heart

The hours you work without respite
And by their beds you sit all night
They are the sacrifices of your heart
They are the sacrifices of your heart

When we are kept from bedside care
It fills our hearts to know you are there
The sacrifices of your heart
Thanks for the sacrifices of your heart

The gentle ways, your gift of love
You’re angels sent from heaven above
Are the sacrifices of your heart
For Me … For Me. We thank you
