The eleventh of September.
A day that I'm sure
We all will remember.
A jet liner crashed
Into the World Trade Tower.
Our symbol of strength,
Our symbol of power.
We stood and we stared
At our television set.
This couldn't be happening,
There's people on that jet.
And then as we stood there,
Wondering what we should do.
Another jet crashed
Into Trade Tower Two.
We gasped and we cried,
Cause by then we all knew...
This was no accident.
The fear in us grew.
The Pentagon's been hit!,
We heard news men exclaim.
My goodness, what's next?
What group is to blame?
Pennsylvania became
The next dreadful site.
Another jet crashed
On a routine flight.
Three different states
Became a crash scene.
Tall Towers, Pentagon,
And a farm field of green.
Rescuers all came,
Volunteers were many.
They didn't want paid,
Not even a penny.
God Bless America!
As the big flag was raised
Everyone watched,
Everyone gazed.
Thousands of people
Were lost on that day;
Both, men and women
And children, they say.
We're waving our flags,
And the ribbons we wear.
We light our candles
To show that we care.
Our military fight
For our freedom and rights.
We need to pray for them
Both, mornings and nights.
