OH, MY GOD
(c)2001 Stephanie Durand
Oh, America
In memory of those who died on September 11
In memory of God
who is banned from our schools and government buildings.
-----
Who did you call on
That fateful day in September
When New York was engulfed in smoke
And you saw people jumping
....for their lives
Did you cry out
"Oh, my God, Oh, my God, Oh, my God"
Did you see it on TV
The children in our schools across America
Holding signs that said
...."God Bless America,
.... God Bless America"
Did you watch them...running down those streets...
And cry out..."Oh,my God"
Did you hold hands with your neighbors
and pray out to God,
"Please God, protect us"
Oh, my God
A second plane has hit the towers
Oh, my God
Please....let them...be OK
Oh, my God
A plane is headed to the Pentagon
Oh, my God
Yes, our children can't say the pledge
Because God's name is in it
But
Wake up
America
Oh NO!
There's another plane
It's circling
One of God's children was on it
And he led them in prayer to his Father
It started off....Our Father...
America
It's time to roll....let's roll
Your children were allowed to hold signs
that said...God Bless America
in schools across our land
Americans, did you see it?
When his name was not allowed,
Did you think....Oh, my God!
Think back...who did you call on...when
the second plane was headed...to the pentagon
Did you pray with your children...
Ok America, he's banned from our schools
Don't put his name in front of our government buildings
But
When the towers came crashing down
And New York was engulfed in smoke
When you watched the scenes on your TV, did you cry out
"Oh, my God" "Oh, my God"
When your loved one was trapped in a building
Did you pray
"Please God! Let him....call me!
Please God"
Did you see on CNN in schools across our land
Children holding signs, children holding hands
Did you see thier signs...
"God Bless America, God Bless America"
Who did you call on
Did you say
"Oh, my God, Oh, my God
Help them! Oh, my God!"
When you found out...there
were children on those planes
Oh, my God, Oh, my God
Did you call on him?
Do you see, do you see,
Do you see...
what is going on in America
When the majority of their bodies were buried
in graves in our land,
But their bodies were in churches
and we held hands
....and prayed for them
Did you cry out to him
When the names of the missing
scrolled....and scrolled...and scrolled
Did you think
Oh, my God, Oh, my God
Did you pray that some of them were still alive
Did you cry out to God..."Please...Give them peace!"
America,
In God we trust...or do we
America,
In God we trust...or do we
His name is not allowed where we work..
...or in our schools
until....tragedy hits!
We are not allowed to pray to him aloud
until....tragedy hits
An airline....roars through our skies
And we see people running for their lives
And then....we are allowed to pray...out loud to him
America,
In God we trust...or do we?
Do you think he sees what we do...
When they banned his name...
Did you pray...please God
forgive them,
for they know not what they do!
forgive them Father...
for they know not what they do!
In God we trust.....
....or do we?
