Lord, I pray for lights to go green.
Would the hearts of your people agree with me?
If all lights go green then none are red.
And the patterns of traffic may turn obscene.
Lord, I pray for lights to go green.
And those tied to sin would be free.
Lord, would you turn all hearts to green?
Green to go towards your majesty.
In your majesty your light is piercing.
My heart hurts and I can't see.
This weight I sense I must offer to you.
In repentance I ask, Lord, forgive me.
Lord you've turned my heart to green.
In your sanctuary your glory gleams.
I know by your grace I am redeemed.
Lord, I pray for lights to go green.

In many instances, children experiencing rare or life threatening illnesses take part in medical research studies through the NIH to gain access to new and emerging medications and therapies. Very often, the medications used by NIH are experimental and have either not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration or have not been cleared to treat a specific illness. When children leave an NIH study, they are at risk of losing access to these life saving therapies because their private insurance won’t cover them.Shuster and Platt’s legislation seeks to close this gap in care by allowing children transitioning out of NIH medical studies to continue to receive medication through Medicaid if private insurance refuses to cover the treatment.
