On Patriots Day 9/11

This song is about a day in American history that will never be forgotten. A day that socked the whole world, and showed us all the kind of world we live in. A world of violence, of hate, of how cruel we can be to our fellow man. How some would rather see their enemies die in horrible deaths instead of finding solutions to bring peace to a world that needs it so desperately.

But this is also a song of hope, of human compassion, of what it means to pull your family close and teach them why world peace is so important in this day and age.

\"And the greatest is Love!\"

 

 

On Patriot\'s Days 9/11

 

Not so long ago

Was born a new Patriots Day

As we all grieved together

The whole world changed that day

 

Now it’s been over twenty years

And still, we mourn their loss

Gone is Osama Bin Laden

And still, we weigh the cost

 

Since man has walked this Earth

Tribes of men have waged senseless wars

Infected with greed and revenge

It’s the love of God we must restore

 

Heroes on the ground

And heroes in the air

In spite of all the danger

To save lives you dared

 

And it doesn’t get any easier

As the years go by

The evidence is clearly

There in our eyes

 

And so, in honor of their memory

We declare this day for them

A nation stands proud

A world of grieving friends

 

They’ll not be forgotten

The stars and stripes still wave

Their legacy survives

The proud, the strong, the brave

 

On this day for them

Standing tall, we’ve found our way

For all they gave us

On this new Patriots Day
