We are rising out of ashes, from the valley of despair Finding deep within our spirit, an urgent need of prayer Sadness all around us, as we seek the Masters arms To find shelter from our heartache, from the city to our farms One nation under God, which at times we neglect The path this country followed which our founding fathers set I pray we all see Jesus, when the smoke and ashes clear He can calm our wounded spirit as He wipes away our fear I search to find some answers to the tragedy we face As I'm lead to bend my knees and rely upon His grace One nation under God, His presence we now must seek He's our refuge and our strength when our spirit is so weak We've renewed within our spirit, the unity of one We will see this valley through, but our work has just begun When the smoke and ashes clear, we will see what we must face I pray we all find mercy, from God's amazing graceBirth sign: Libra
