Fires
still burn where terror struck
Smoke still hovers in the skies
But let the
world make no mistake
The eagle still proudly flies
The rescue and clean up have begun
Each continuing till the end
As
presidents and politicians
Separate enemies from friends
As a nation
shocked and saddened
We prepare ourselves for war
And no one has a single
doubt
Just what we're fighting for
Flags have vanished off store
shelves
To reappear most everywhere
Antennas, porches, and
billboards
As America shows the world we care
The country has come together
In a way we never have
before
As shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand
We face what the future holds
in store
Waving flags and singing anthems
With candles shining near
and far
The "UNITED STATES" is suddenly
Exactly what we are
Old
Glory flies above us
The Eagle soars higher still
No one else in all the
world
Can match our courage and our will
Ahead lies much
uncertainty
Many more may lose their lives
But of one thing there is no
doubt
America WILL survive!!
