Verse

CWhere were you when the world stopped turning,

GOn that September day?

COut in the Yard with your wife and children,

GOr working on some stage in CL.A.

 Did you Fstand there in shock

 At the Csite of that black smoke

FRising up against that blue sCky

 Did you sFhout out in anger

 In feCar for your neighbor,

 Or Amdid you just sit down and Fcry? G

 Did you weep fCor the children, they lost their dear loved ones,

 And Gpray for the ones who don?t knoCw?

 DCid you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble

 And Gsob for the ones left beClow?

 Did you Fburst out in pride

 For the RCed, White, and Blue

 And the Fhero?s who died

 just dCoing what they do,

 Did you lFook up to heaven for some kind of Canswer

 And Amlook at your self and what reaFlly matters?

Chorus

FI?m just a singer of

 sCimple songs I?m not a

 RFeal political mCan

 I watch FCNN, But I?m not sure I can tell Cyou

 The diffAmerence in Iraq and IraFn.

FBut I know Jesus

 And I talCk to God

 And I remembFer this from when I was Cyoung

 FaitFh, Hope and Love, are some Cgood things he gave us

GBut the greatest is Flove. G

Verse

Where were you when the world stopped turning

On that September day?

Teaching a class full of innocent children

Or driving down some cold interstate?

Did you feel guilty cause you?re a survivor

In a crowded room do you feel alone?

Did you call up your mother

And tell you love her,

Or did you dust off that Bible at home?

Did you open you eyes and hope it never happened

Close your eyes and not go to sleep?

Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages

And speak to some stranger on the street?

Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow

Go out and buy you a gun

Did you turn off that violent old movie you?re watching

And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?

Bridge

 Did you gFo to a church and hold Chands with some strangers

FStand inline to give your own blood?

FDid you just stay home

 And cling Ctight to your family,

 Thank AmGod you have somebody to Flove.

Chorus

GAnd the greatest is FLove

GAnd the greatest is Clove
