I heaved my personal sobs
Crying for me
Crying for them
Crying for we
Crying for the sights I see
For those who have lost
Lives that were tossed
All the way across
The land from me
On another sea
Surrounded by a sea of tears
Of all of us grappling with fears
Consumed with a sorrow for our peers
Combination of cries, music, machinery, volunteers
Those in charge of tough decisions be brave through fear
Mystery of iniquity and evil abounds
Spirit, Faith and hope are found
In smoke, debris, unknown, unsound
The truth, love, and freedom in my heart pound
I will be ok with you and Him and we
My big national family tree
The Spirit of a Nation abides in us, you and me
Never alone and always free
