The tears fall like rain
In sorrow for our people
What happened today
Was the awfullest of evil
Lives lost, dreams shattered
Hearts torn, our country battered
So much pain we have to face
Brings us closer at amazing pace
The fear of war is now at hand
A decision left up to one single man
Let him pray for guidance from our Lord and Chief
Cause he will lead us despite our grief
Fight only for honor, not for revenge
Vengeance is mine, said the Lord
Go forth with strength, determination to conquer
The one's who are guilty of this horror
Only then can we accept the fate
Of loved ones lost in this act of hate
So say your prayers, hold your children tight
Our country will fight with all our might.
