9/11... Remembering


Like the Sea


By Tammy T. Cundiff


Remembrance


The day has come to join our hands
and thank God we live in this land

Look at your neighbors with different eyes

Open your ears to hear their cries

Open your souls to defend our rights

To terror that comes like a thief in the night

Hold out your hand to help your brother

Kiss your children hug your father and mother

Freedom is something we should all hold dear

and never let it go because of fear

open your heart to those in need

This is a message we should all heed

Pray for those who lost their lives

Pray for all their husbands and wives

Pray for the children left behind

Pray for the souls we cannot find

This is a day we will always remember

As freedom is attacked the 11th day of September

Never forget that we are one

We must stand together the day has come

For united we stand divided we fall

God bless America God bless us one and all.

9/11 will stand as a day to remember for a very long time. I remember too clearly that day. God bless our country and all the people in the world who are victims of terrorism.
