September 11th 2001! 7 years ago! I still have not forgotten! I still treasure the freedom our military fights so hard to defend and preserve! I cling to the Future and Hope I have In Jesus Christ and I remember His Faithfulness!
A United States Marine Wrote This Poem On September 11th 2001; it was his response to a very overwhelming day! Today, it shows us some awesome "Heavenly Hindsight"! OUR GOD IS MIGHTY TO SAVE! OUR GOD IS FAITHFUL! REMEMBER HIM TODAY!
FREEDOM
One heart - one blood - one soul
Freedom is our ultimate goal!
Freedom from terror and fear
Freedom that we now
feel is not so near
Freedom from the
anguish and the grief
Freedom from that terrifying thief
We have all felt the terror
and shock that he brings
From the poor, to those rich as kings
This tragedy has touched
us all first hand,
there is sorrow and grieving
throughout the land
We must now fight
for the freedom we once had
We must bury the hatred
and take the good with the bad
This course in our life has been set
What took place that day
we will never forget
But don't be dismayed
for true freedom comes from within
It is a battle that we will always win
The broken hearts will eventually mend
And justice will prevail in the end
Be strong for our loved ones that are gone
And with our strength America will live on
