~ The Flame of Unity ~
 
Why is the dearest treasure
Stripped away from our heart,
Is it because we hold them so close
We are torn apart
From all we love the most.
If we had known they would be lost
What difference would it bring,
Could we have held them tight
With no freedom to sing
Brought them back to fight the night.
 
Turn again and come to me
For memory can not depart,
I see you now, never gone,
Still walking with me on life's path
In the night so long.
God didn't come that day in time
To terrify us with fear,
To judge or condescend,
Nor to put us into bondage
But, to make of us His friend.
 
He came another dark day in time
To release us from the fear of night,
Though terror filled the skies with pain
None disappear from His sight
Embraced in His tears of rain.
 
It is immortalized in our hearts
A day of tragic majesty,
To deliver us from unseen assault,
For God's love lifted higher
We are made stronger by the fault.
 
The haunting whispers
Ignite the jewels of blazing fire,
That nothing can extinguish,
Now alight the flame of unity
Gripped forever in its kiss.
