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 reach so bravely
To help those find a way
With hearts of grateful nation
We bow are 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.
