NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. The Lessons of September 11th On that fateful September morning, Many lives were changed forever With the crash on the Pentagon, In Pennsylvania, and at the World Trade Center We cried out in anger And wept in our grief, We watched scenes of horror That cut to the deep Though many cried, Where was God in all this! But He saw all that happened, God was there in our midst He was saddened by the Death and destruction caused And He knows of the Loved ones weve lost But theres other reasons why all this has happened There are many things He wants us to learn See, love and compassion and unity Are some things we have seen in return. Respect for our God-given freedom Is another thing we also must value, We often overlook the price that was paid By many men and women, just so you could live today. We must remember that freedom was something That Washington and his men wouldnt sacrifice. In signing that Declaration of Independence It was for freedom that they would give their very lives From the trenches of Europe to the jungles of the Pacific, Through the death and destruction and tears People have fought for their freedom and country They gave their lives for what they held very dear Ever since September 11th, Our lives have never been the same, People have lost loved ones buried under the rubble And others may lie unnamed From all that has happened Through the tragedy of all this, We know love, compassion, unity And our God-given freedom are priceless.
