The Unforgettable - In Honor of Holocaust Memorial Day
When the sirens wail
A memory’s restored
Of the millions lost
That by God were so adored.
Senseless slaughter
Beyond belief,
Only Satan’s plotter
Could crave this untold grief.
The years have passed,
Generations born anew,
The wish of mourners massed
Humanity slowly to renew.
With one voice all of us decree
Such abomination never shall repeat,
In a world where rarely we agree
We all vow never so mistreat.
But for this moment silent we remain
To say a prayer for those who suffered so,
Old age they never did attain
Yet now bask in the Lord’s eternal glow.
