Words and Music By:

Vs.1 

   On a sunny day from sea to shining sea---- We said goodbye to our kids--- The bombing in Oklahoma--- The downing of the twin towers--- and our husbands and our wives--- every soldier’s sacrifice--- yeah, they’re only gone for a moment--- I know they’re looking down, from paradise.

Chorus:

 Say a prayer for all God’s children--- and sing a little song--- for the kids--- We’re proud and strong--- Here in America--- But, there’s so much pain in the heartland--- yet we give---- We still give---

Vs. 2

 As our loved ones all are taken—from the rubble and the tears--- we can lean on love just a little--- to help us with our fears--- cause though we’ve all been shaken--- from that cold sunny day--- a smile can last forever--- Let’s remember our loved ones that way---

Chorus:

 Say a prayer for all God’s children--- and sing a little song--- for the kids--- We’re proud and strong--- Here in America--- But, there’s so much pain in the heartland--- yet we give---- We still give---

Bridge: MUSICAL ONLY

Chorus:
