10th Anniversary Healing and Remembrance
911 Memorial
Faceless cowards can bend, break and destroy our steel structures....
But they will NEVER...EVER
take our freedom or our hearts,
and never, will they break our spirits
nor destroy our courage.
~GOD BLESS THE USA~
LEE GREENWOOD
If tomorrow all the
things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
With just my children
and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
To be living here today,
'Cause the flag still
stands for freedom
And they can't
take that away.
I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the
men who died
Who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up
next to you
And defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.,
There's pride in
every American heart
And it's time
we stand and say:
I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget
the men who died
Who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up
next to you
And defend her
still today

Was Your Flag Flying High On September
Eleven?
Was your flag soaring high on September Ten?
Or did it not seem so important back then?
You raise it now as you play our nation’s song.
The question remains: For how long?
Was your patriotism showing on September Nine?
Or had it been hidden away for quite some time?
You proudly profess it now, more than in the
past.
The question remains: How long will it last?
Would you stop and help a stranger on September
Eight?
Or did you pass him by, not wanting to be late?
You volunteer now no matter what the venue.
The question remains: Will it continue?
Did you support the officer of the law on
September Seven?
Or just complain about the violence on the news
at eleven?
You now boast on how they are the best in the
land.
The question remains: How long will it stand?
Did you appreciate our firefighters on September
Six?
Or curse, when slowed by their trucks, put you
in a fix?
You now call them heroes and the cream of the
crop.
The question remains: When will it stop?
Were you a recurrent blood donor on September
Five?
Or just expect it to be there, to keep "you"
alive?
Now to give, you stand and cheer for hours in a
line.
The question remains: Will there be enough next
time?
Did you respect our military on September Four?
Or applaud defense cuts on the congressional
floor?
You now salute and honor them like you give a
damn.
The question remains: Will it be another Viet
Nam?
Did you sacrifice for your neighbors on
September Three?
Or did you just think, there’s nothing in it for
me?
Now you console and comfort them in their
sorrow.
The Question remains: Will you be there
tomorrow?
Were you praying for world peace on September
Two?
Or were there more important things you had to
do?
Now you go to church, the synagogue and mass.
The question remains: Will this too, just pass?
Were you united behind your president on
September One?
Or still angry because you thought Al Gore had
won?
Now you denounce bipartisanship, all for one
cause.
The question remains: When will this also pause?
It was tragic what happened to our Nation on
September Eleven.
We saw a glimpse of hell; for answers we looked
up to heaven.
We found the lining behind the cloud
and made some good from that fateful day.
The questions remain:
What did we learn and how long will it stay that
way?
