THE TOWERS! 9/11/11 Composed by Jim Crenshaw

A LION was prowling the earth one day, seeking someone to devour.
His attention was caught as he passed our way, in the shadow of the twin towers.

THOSE TOWERS, he thought, represent the nation, that was founded on the law of God.
So I’ll bring them down, on all the people around, and they’ll know where Satan has trod.

THE 737 was his weapon of choice, and those that flew them, were filled with hate.
Their targets were the towers that stood so tall, and the crash ,would seal their fate.

THERE WAS fire and smoke and blood and tears when the towers hit the ground.
And the devil danced in glee, and pranced, through the rubble of America’s town.

THEY WOUNDED us again, that very same day, as they struck the Pentagon.
And the devil screamed out his terrible hate, as he thought, that he had won.

BUT THERE was trouble on the next,737, that set the devil’s plans back.
“Let’s roll” was the cry in the passengers cabin, as American people struck back.

SATAN TREMBLED, when he saw the Sleeping Giant wake up, and he retreated in fury and fear. When God’s people resisted, he could do no more, than turn and run away from here.

IN THE ten years since, that evil event, Al Qaeda has wondered; “What happened?”
They’re on the run and Osama is done, and their organization is flattened.

SO LOOK UP Church to the Head of yourself, and know, that He’s still there.
Our commander in chief still calls the shots; He is, beyond compare.

NO FEAR Christian, He’s in your corner, where He promised to be; always.
So trust in the Lord and know He loves you, and He will, for all of your days.

Note: Jim writes his poems as “say a song” and plays along on his guitar. If you are a guitar player then say this poem and play along using (D) (A7) (Somewhere along (G) back to (D) (A7) chords....He thinks it would sound better playing in the minor chords but he doesn’t know how. If you remember Johnnie Cash and his style, you will get the hang of a “say a song!” Have fun and remember 9/11
