| On April 19, 1995, around 9:03 a.m., after parents dropped their children off at the day care at the Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City a massive bomb inside a rental truck exploded, blowing up half of the nine-story building. 168 people were dead including children. |
| In the ruins lies the tears it holds Touched by hands that worked all night As I watch my heart is torn apart I see Oklahoma hold on tight I saw that child Trembling in fear She was bloody burnt and wild Holding onto anyone Holding on to love is best Helping those who are hurt or lost For we are living this evil still With broken hearts and challenged wills Justice...Stop this hatred Waco instilled The Beast, he will not win In the minutes and the days to come And the years they will hurt still I swear I won't forget the suffering here I know they never will Jesus... comfort me I saw Oklahoma cry She was searching through the ruins Still.....For more lives Jesus...comfort her, I saw her cry She was running through the streets Searching for her child. |
| I can't believe it, Oklahoma All this hatred fell on you In the quiet hush of morning rush Evil blasted through Jesus, Comfort her I saw her cry She was running through the streets Searching for her child All the lives hurt, all the children All swept up by design Sleeping angels in the clouds this night Cradled in His arms I saw that child Lying limp in his arms And I saw that man's heart Winding down Now we look for reasons why Our hearts will ask We cannot reply For we have seen this evil now With the will to kill and eyes that prowl You think it's quiet for the Heartland now The storm has just begun |
