Sometimes it doesn't matter
how well we live our lives
How we take care of our children
love our husbands and our wives
Sometimes just trying to make a living
is snatched right from under our feet
Kissing our loved ones goodbye this morning
and never again to come home and greet
Sometimes we send our children off
with a hug and a silent prayer
Lifting them up to Heaven above
for our Lord to protect and care
Sometimes there are evil people
who have no regard for human lives
Torturing and hurting in terror,
killing others is their prize
Sometimes even our Mother Nature
can throw us devastation beyond compare
We can't always understand her fury
but for each other we must be there
Sometimes life seems unfair and cruel
even though we live our lives by the rule
Giving and sharing of ourselves with love
we must ask for guidance from up above
Sometimes we must help our fellow man
pray for the world as best as we can
Understand that this evil is only a few
condemn not the nations for what they do
Please come and rest here for a while
read the stories of these heroes brave
Help us to honor victims gone too soon
and forget not the ones who were saved
