Words and music by Tim Bryant
Key of A
VERSE 1
One September day, it seemed that time stood still
Someone thought that they, could go and break our will
And so our land that day was put to test again
Little did they know that they could never win
VERSE 2
One September day, Moms did not come home
Many Fathers too, so many left alone
By the grace of God, we have carried on
Building back our lives, showing we have won
CHORUS 1
How can anyone ever think it's right to do so wrong
When we all remember, it serves to make us strong
The liberty we cherish, we all should celebrate
All because of what happened on, one September day
VERSE 3
One September day, risking their own life
Many were so brave, many sacrificed
Guarding freedom here, for both me and you
Giving us all pride, in red white and blue
REPEAT CHORUS 1
VERSE 4
Let us daily hold, to what we all have here
Hope beyond this life, and friends and family dear
Gather strength from Him, who will be at our side
Having thankful hearts, for what we have inside
CHORUS 2
Let's continue to do what's right when others do us wrong
For when we follow this, it serves to make us strong
The liberty we cherish, is given by God's grace
So let's always remember that, one September day
