Where Is God?

 

Remembering 9-11~~~~~~

 

Four years have passed and still I wonder

Where is God?

I watched in a daze the awful plunder crying,

Where is God?

 

 

Noises heard upon the roof foretelling yet another being

Jumped from untold heights;

The horrors left behind making that the better choice.

My soul cries out from depths

Unknown before~~~

And yet I have no voice.

Where is God?

 

Police and Firemen facing unknown terrors within the towers.

Passenger planes crashed through, they burned for hours.

Terrorists, hoping to find the Glory of Allah,

Producing devastation so macabre.

The Nation falls; repentant' on its knees

And thousands of voices asking~~~ pleading~~~PLEASE!!!

Where is God?

 

Our first heroes are passengers on flight 93.

Hell-bent for Washington, on their watch was not to be.

They gave their lives:  the first of many more

Who strive to keep this menace from our shores.

And Where is God?

 

The pentagon burns in fatal fire

The roof caving in upon forgotten souls

Who were only doing their jobs, that morning hour

If only our enemies could have foretold.

Where is God?

 

God was right there to welcome all who fell

Into His Loving Arms on their descent.

God was right there with the police and

Firemen!! OH YES, Jesus was present.

 

He called all that arrived that day

Into His Heavenly Home, with Him to Abide.

They all stood in humble silence as He Spoke

The words that left the terrorists outside!!!!

 

He was there in every helping hand

That soothed a stricken face, or smoothed a brow.

He was there in those whose bucket brigade

Searched for lost souls, for days untold now.

 

He was there with every drop of blood

Given from raging sea to shining sea

He was there in every flag that waved

Across the country; around the world; for all to see.

 

He was there when first we went to War

To free the world from terrorism fierce.

He will be there, as we do so much more

To bring the world some freedom, and some Peace.

 

Where is God???  He lives within the hearts

Of those He loves and those that He has called.

In every kind and thoughtful deed, they do bestow

As they walk safe amongst the madding crowd.

 

God Lives within the heart of all who call on Him

His Spirit Speaks, when words can ne'er express

The depth of Longing, Yearning, Healing Needed here on Earth;

For freedom pure; to find true happiness;

GOD IS THERE……….
