She will rise again, for the whole world to see
This powerful nation we love refuses to fall to her knees
Though sadness may linger, for the ones we lost so dear
Truth and triumph are never far from reach, they are always near

Every year on this day we shall remember the ones we loved and lost
Never forgetting the sum of what we paid, way too much in cost
When our country attacks, no one involved with terrorism will be free
Justice will be served, and all that happens will be meant to be

Tears of mothers and children can be heard late at night
The heroes on that day though now are living in forever heavenly light
The red white and blue will see glorious days again
As we shake hands with our allies, gather near our cherished friends

The towers may have fallen on that day, but our spirit never will
With every beat of our hearts, you can feel the patriotism and pride that is so real
Lives were lost on that day, but terrorism will come to an end
So though our nation may be down for the moment, She will rise again

Thank you.
