The Arkansas Football game last night had a 911 memorial. We had a red white and blue out. Even sections wore red, odd white and the student section wore blue




As the firefighters, police and service members stretched the American flag out across the field, a Air Force Fly over roared by. A Arkansas Native New York Fire Fighter walked out holding a Peace of rubble form the twin towers, the Stadium was silent, The Band tenderly preformed taps, I looked to my left and to my right to see if i was the only crying. to my relief i was not.

A few seconds later a faint chant started, USA,USA, USA, USA

Thank you My Son for choosing to serve. Semper Fi

God of our fathers, known of old—
Lord of our far-flung battle line—
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!

The tumult and the shouting dies—
The Captains and the Kings depart—
Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice,
An humble and a contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!

Far-called our navies melt away—
On dune and headland sinks the fire—
Lo, all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the Nations, spare us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!

If, drunk with sight of power, we loose
Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe—
Such boastings as the Gentiles use,
Or lesser breeds without the Law—
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!

For heathen heart that puts her trust
In reeking tube and iron shard—
All valiant dust that builds on dust,
And guarding calls not Thee to guard.
For frantic boast and foolish word,
Thy Mercy on Thy People, Lord!
Amen
