SYRIAN REFUGEE CRISIS INSPIRES A SONG - AWAY FROM HOME

Song Written By - Isabel McArthur Jones

The Syrian refugees initially inspired the song,
then it grew to include all those persecuted
in the middle east, including both Muslims
and Christians who are robbed of a voice
by ISIS. Films such as Return to the Hiding Place,
Amazing Grace and The Giver played a special
role in reminding her that all of us have a role
in promoting healthy justice, being a voice for the
voiceless, and bringing them our support, whether
or not we have the same values as them."

This is not a political statement, but rather a 
creative way to promote justice. Artists who 
worked on this project hold various political views. 
Our heart: honor humanity. Bring hope. If not us, 
who? If not now, when?
