I hesitate to mention September 11th, because of the strong feelings and single-minded patriotism that is fast becoming associated with it. Still, it is an event that has touched everyone to some extent, both in the united states and abroad. This song isn’t a tribute – I won’t try to force patriotism on you. No person, no country, is entirely innocent or guilty – by the same token, no one person or country is with or against God.
