Darkness came and laid us low
Cries went up as loved ones fell
Our nation mourned and we endured

And though we will never forget
May healing begin


Such times as these amid great loss
We search for answers that bring peace and certainty
Though hard to find come quietly

And though we will never forget
May healing begin


For though in throes of sorrow
We must remember all those
Brave souls who sacrificed while heeding call

May their courage ever guide us
And inspire us to find the
Strength we need that we may carry on----


This solemn ground does give us pause
To reflect on things important to us all

Their memory in heart we keep
And though we will never forget
May healing begin


For though in throes of sorrow
We must remember all those

Brave souls who sacrificed while heeding call
May their courage ever guide us
And inspire us to find the

Strength we need that we may carry on carry on
Through the dark they light our path


That together we may find our will and way
And with God's grace we'll overcome
For though we will never forget

May healing begin
