Lord, was this part of your perfect timing?
Was this part of the plan?
Thousands of people lose their lives,
to a terrorist groups' hand.

Two buildings fall for what?
200 firefighters die, can't find a beating heart.
Lord don't let Our Country fall,
don't let us fall apart.

I never thought I'd live to see,
things only other countries go through,
From me, it was only 4 hours away
I wasn't sure what to think or do.

Is it Pearl Harbor once again,
will war be the product of this pain?
Lord, give our leaders power...
but, let Your hope reign.

All the country is shut down,
is this another part of my character quest?
Something to build up my faith??
Well, I feel like I need a rest.

Palestine think it's funny,
200 firefighters with a grave of concrete.
200 hearts not beating, bodies with no names,
Lord I lay it all down at your feet.

I lay down the pain.
I lay down my fears.
I lay down all the things I'm feeling.
I lay down the Country's tears.
I'm not following your plan, Lord,
I don't understand why thousands of people must die.
Was it really each persons time?
I don't know whether to rejoice or cry.

Lord give our Leader's wisdom,
don't let war become once more.
I'm scared of what might happen,
I've never seen this so close to me before.

I start to realize how little my complaints are,
how insignificant I must be,
compared to your way of doing things.
Lord, please set us free.

Are we meant to live in terror?
Are we supposed to grow again?
I know it sounds so cliche,
but I just wish we could all be friends.

I seem to have expected too much,
from the human race.
To much confidience in human instinct to be right,
Lord, please be in this place.

It seems we humans,
will never live up to any standards at all,
The only thing we're expected to do is mess up,
to take a hit and fall.

Lord be with all of us now,
be the light in the smoke still falling down.
Lord be our foundation, and spread your light all around.

Even though now we cry,
we will rejoice someday,
Yes, justice will reign again.
Lord for now just be here and guide,
be our father and our friend.
