We Need to Pray

I wake at five in the morning knowing I need to pray
My heart is heavy as before the Lord I lay
For what and who I pray, I have no clue,
As the planes left the ground covered in dew
I watched the story unfold in the box
The plane crept across the sky like a sly fox
My heart sinks as I watch the towers fall
They that once stood so proud and tall
I stand at my flag pole and pray
The day has turned hazy and grey
My heart cries out with every hour past
The flag is at half mast
I kneel at my flag pole and I pray
Lord, take away this evil day
We have no where else to turn
It is for your comfort that we yearn
The human spirit has not been crushed
We bond together in crowds, solemn and hushed
We give from the heart
Though we are so very far apart
Today is the day
We need to turn to you and pray
Lord take away our sin
Clean us from deep within
Take us back Oh Lord, we have fallen away
Let us see You on this day.
