**HAVE A HEART**
tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic

Enlisted in a war based on a presidential lie
prepared to serve their country even sacrifice their lives
they came to realize it was a useless evil war
they decided to resist

Chorus:
Have a heart and give them shelter
Have a heart and give them shelter
Have a heart and give them shelter
Help war resisters now!

O Canada you're not our native land and not our home
But we admire how you welcome refugees who roam
A more humane society is what we've always heard
Help war resisters now!

Chorus

The Grannies span the border and we work in unity
With our Canadian sisters we want conscience to be free
Resisters from an evil war should live in liberty
Help war resisters now!

Chorus


**YOU GAVE YOUR AID IN AGES PAST**
(tune: hymn St. Anne/Oh God Our Help in Ages Past)

You gave your aid in ages past
And hope for years to come
Give shelter from the stormy blast
Resisters need a home!

**CANADA: SAVE THE RESISTERS!**
tune: God Save the Queen (My Country 'Tis of Thee)

In these distressing times
Armies commit war crimes
But some resist
They cross the border and
Take refuge in the land
That's known for peace and justice, please
Le-eave them in peace

Enlisted in good faith
They realized too late
This war is wrong
Interna-TION-al law
Says unjust war's a crime
Uphold traditions from past times
Le-eave them in peace

There in Victoria,
The Raging Grannies sprang
Forth to protest
We follow in their shoes
Hoping that you will chose
To shelter war resi-i-sters
Le-eave them in peace
