Will I Live To See Tomorrow ?
A Prayer Against Terrorism
Linda Ann Henry
Will I live to see tomorrow
For I saw your face today
I will never let you take me
Or lose my soul in anyway
I read about you in the papers
I look at the fear in your eye's
I have been on the plane of terror
In the bombs and every cry
I look at our country
In a world I will not lie
For I AM the people
I will never die
Will I live to see tomorrow
I have seen brave solders
Lose their lives
But I pray for every man and women
Children who kneel and pray
God I will never let them take my freedom
Or give my soul away.
I hear the words of a great hockey player
As he helped his fellowman
Take back a plane
Even though he would never
See his loved one's again
I see myself in flames
Will I live to see tomorrow
For if I die, it will be in freedoms name
I may see terror, but my heart will forever live on
I AM the voice of peace,
And I will carry on.
Linda Ann Henry
The people's poet
Written for the innocents
and those who will never
have their soul's taken away.
