Still a Target

Can we get on with our lives,
or is there still a list.
Are we a target in others eyes,
it's not the end of terrorists.
So many lives already lost,
how long will it go on.
What does freedom really cost,
always will we stand strong.
God provides us each day,
offers his sword and shield.
Lighting our paths along the way,
offerings of grace in a field.
Will this world ever be at peace,
what's on the list.
It doesn't hurt to just say please,
God deliver us from terrorists.
So keep one thing in mind,
never to forget.
The peace we may never find,
because we are still a target.
