The Day The World Cried

Life gone in an instant
With blasts of hate from air
Caught within a moment
This deed done brings despair

Contemplate this evil
What good has this deed done
Left us filled with hatred
This battle never won

Torn with mass destruction
Deliberate hate designed
For only in one instant
Deep sorrow for mankind

Families filled with horror
Hearts are filled with tears
Within us saddest moment
What purpose brings us here

Let us join united
To say a silent prayer
For those who were the victims
Their voices we must hear

People joining hands now
Creating biggest chain
Bringing forth a miracle
Where evil brought such pain

Innocent are dead now
What power does this give
Lost within the horror
But yet we all must live

Fear cannot bring power
For deep inside hate looms
The power of the people
In silent prayer resumes

Hands that reached so bravely
To help those find a way
With hearts of grateful nation
We bow our heads and pray

For all those who are lost now
On this most dreaded day
We pray that God will give us
The strength to find a way.

~Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me~
~Psalm 23:4~

September 11, 2001 will be remembered forever. Citizens of 80 countries were among those lost in the WTC tragedy and my heart goes out to all those whose lives are directly or indirectly impacted by this horrible tragedy.
God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that bring sorrow and disappointment in our lives but we can soar above the storm for it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, but how we handle them. I'm still numb and haunted by the horrific images, unable to understand the hatred in man, the horrendous acts of evil.....there is no justification, no words, only feelings.......

May the Lord Bless us ALL!
