Reclaiming September 12th

A prayer from the pulpit
renewed at our table
a prayer of remembrance
gathering our hope
That all of us people
all of humanity
would reclaim the spirit
we had on September 12th
Standing as one people
united in our purpose
caring for our neighbors
to heal their open wounds
united as a people
seeking the comfort of God
