Remembering 9/11

 Buildings rendered dust and tangled steel, Entombing the innocent lost Victims of the madness of terrorists Who cared not what the human cost.

Atop the rubble, our will was forged To conquer once more our earth And spread abroad the integrity Of the country of our birth.

First to avenge and protect our people

With so much of the country dry

And rain still out of sight,

Fireworks will not brighten

Many skies tonight.

It’s just a little sacrifice

Fathers

The nation needs more fathers

Who fulfill the ancient role

That from Adam until recently

Was every father’s goal.

Dear God please make our families

Like those that we once had;

Let families stick together

And let each child know his dad.

The family is the only hope

For our nation to survive;

Prayer for the United States

 

Don’t let the colors of our nation,

The red, the white and the blue,

Be allowed to fade and this nation

Fade away into history too.

 

There is always hope for a nation

That walks within the Lord,

And failure to walk with Him

We cannot now afford;
