Have you forgotten?

Darryl Worley/Wynn Varble, 2003

I hear people saying we don't need this war

I say there's some things worth fighting for
What about our freedom and this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down

They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in
Before you start preaching
Let me ask you this my friend


CHORUS 1


Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?


Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell


And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?


They took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing for you and me
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it every day


Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right


CHORUS 1


Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?


Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell


And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?


I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
And you can bet they remember
Just what they're fighting for


CHORUS 2


Have you forgotten all the people killed?
Some went down like heroes in that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?
All the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on


Don't you tell me not to worry about Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?


Have you forgotten?


Have you forgotten?



We should never forget.


We should never stop praying.


If we do, then they've won.


We can't let them win.

**2 Chronicles 7:14
New International Version (NIV)


If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
