My thoughts and prayers go out to all the victims and the families who have lost loved ones & friends in this most horrible tragedy! I extend my deepest sympathy to all of them. May God hold you especially close in these trying days & weeks ahead. May God bless all of the workers & rescue teams that are trying to find survivors. May God bless our President & all of his staff, as they prepare to make sure this tragedy does not go unpunished. And Lord, please bless our military men and women! May they have angels all around them in the days ahead!

May God Bless America!

Today the Eagle Cried



Today I heard an eagle cry
As it flew high overhead,
It cried a message to the world,
So many innocent now dead.

How could this horror happen?
Today America is under attack,
Terrorists seized their planes
In the world's worst hijack.

No longer stand the World Trade Towers
New York was so proud of,
No longer live the people
That worked inside so high above.

The innocent passengers inside those planes
With these cowards flew,
They knew they were about to die
But nothing could they do.

Let's not forget the Pentagon
And the Pittsburgh crash indeed,
These cowards in control
Were determined to succeed.

Today the eagle cried,
But with its powerful wings it flew
Across its American skies,
With determination born anew.

Like the eagle are the people,
For they shed a tear as well,
Their fight for freedom and democracy
Will triumph over hell.

God bless the innocent people
That died upon this day,
God bless their families and their friends,
Then guide them along their way.

Finally, God bless America,
For she'll stand strong and free,
Because her people stand united
For the entire world to see.
