| Our country will be attacked And we will know outrage But we will not be afraid. Our children will carry our hearts to combat And they will give their lives But we will not be afraid. We will cry for our fallen heroes And we will be overwhelmed But we will not be afraid. We will comfort our veterans And we will grieve all dead and wounded But we will not be afraid. We will be angry at the cost of war And in sorrow we will blame But we will not be afraid. |

WE WILL NOT BE AFRAID

Nick Arnett and Gold Star Families Speak Out © 2006
| Our faith will seem empty And we will cry out at our God But we will not be afraid. The "terrorist threat" will turn purple And we will face hard choices But we will not be afraid. We will call for justice And we will stand for mercy And we will not be afraid. We will choose in our churches And we will pray in our polling booths And we will not be afraid. We will find compassion for those who betray us And we will ask miracles of those who lead us And we will not be afraid. |
| We will hold each other's hands And find strength in our broken hearts And we will not be afraid. We will accept the folded flags And we will reject all hatred And we will not be afraid. We will acknowledge the worst of life And we will make the best of it And we will not be afraid. We will remember those we lost And peace will find us And we will not be afraid. We will wear gold stars And we will share our stories And we will not be afraid. We will not be silent And we will not be afraid. |
