LORD, HELP US TO FLY

The tragedy brought to light this week
has saddened hearts everywhere.
Solace for the wounded and grieving
is at the heart of our fervent prayer.
We mourn the loss of our fellow man-
We digest the news as best we can.
Virginia Tech, like 9-11,
has raised our voice to God in Heaven.
Tragic things happen,
we try to reason why.
Something good must come from this-
Lord, we need to fly.
We must rise above the chaos,
negativity and fear-
Lord, we can be overcomers
as long as You are near.
