A day like any other, the sun rose in the sky
No one knew that on this day, the innocent would die.
Waves and kisses, off to school, just
as you’d expect
But on this day of tragedy, even the angels wept.
We mourn the 20 little ones who lost their lives that
day,
And for adults who also died, we bow our heads and
pray.
We can’t hold back the tears Lord, our sorrow can’t be
eased.
Our outrage, shock and anger, just cannot be appeased.
And so our hearts are broken, our eyes are filled with
tears,
We need for you to hold us close and calm us from our
fears.
We all must learn to strive each day, to help our
fellow man,
And stop the violence, hate and strife in anyway we
can.
Help for those in mental strife, counseling and care,
Stop the hateful bullying, and teach our kids to
share.
Evil men exist, dear Lord, no matter what we do,
But if we work to do these things, we just may save a
few.
There is another thing I ask, Please come back to our
schools,
So we can teach your law of love, and live the golden rule.
Enlighten all your people - our leaders and all men,
So we may be one nation, strong and “ under God” again.
