Anguish and Hope
I miss the honking of cars
I miss the cool late night breeze
as we watch the stars
Never thought all of it would seize
we're at war with an enemy from afar
she stops at nothing to see us down
our smiley faces have turned sad
but we shall overcome if we stand our ground
she's swift in crossing boundaries
before we have the time to think
she's here stopping blood in our arteries
sorrow and heartbreak the news bring
the strongest man is now on his knees
In times like this dear Lord your name we call
let this pass over us please
do not let your creation fall
