Tribute 9/11
Darkness ended that tearful day
Every heart torn, united to pray
Devastation seemed to have stripped all our dreams
Our loved ones we lost, a tragedy unforseen
Each child, each parent, friend or foe
What happened in thier last moments... we'll never know
But, as terror and panic engulfed our very land
God gave us the strength to have the upper hand
We came together as a whole, one nation we rose
Never giving up, merged in love, spirit and soul
So when you think back on this day, with heavy heart and tears
Memories will stay with us, and keep those we lost so dear......
No more fear...
