September 2002 [bodytext] => I wake at five in the morning knowing I need to pray My heart is heavy as before the Lord I lay For what and who I pray, I have no clue, As the planes left the ground covered in dew I watched the story unfold in the box The plane crept across the sky like a sly fox My heart sinks as I watch the towers fall They that once stood so proud and tall I stand at my flag pole and pray The day has turned hazy and grey My heart cries out with every hour past The flag is at half mast I kneel at my flag pole and I pray Lord, take away this evil day We have no where else to turn It is for your comfort that we yearn The human spirit has not been crushed We bond together in crowds, solemn and hushed We give from the heart Though we are so very far apart Today is the day We need to turn to you and pray Lord take away our sin Clean us from deep within Take us back Oh Lord, we have fallen away Let us see You on this day.
