  • Where were you when the world stop turning on that September day
    Were you in the yard with your wife and children
    Or working on some stage in L.A.
    Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke
    Rising against that blue sky

    Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
    Or did you just sit down and cry

    Did you weep for the children who lost their dear loved ones
    And pray for the ones who don't know
    Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble
    And sob for the ones left below
    Did you burst out in pride for the red, white and blue
    And the heroes who died just doin' what they do
    Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
    And look at yourself and what really matters

    I'm just a singer of simple songs
    I'm not a real political man
    I watch CNN but I'm not sure I could
    Tell you the difference in Iraq and Iran
    But I know Jesus and I talk to God
    And I remember this from when I was young
    Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us
    And the greatest is love

    Where were you when the world stop 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 did you feel alone
    Did you call up your mother and tell her you loved her
    Did you dust off that Bible at home

    Did you open your eyes, hope it never happened
    And you close your eyes and not go to sleep
    Did you notice the sunset the first time in ages
    Or 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

    Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers
    Stand in line and give your own blood
    Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family
    Thank God you had somebody to love

    I'm just a singer of simple songs
    I'm not a real political man
    I watch CNN but I'm not sure I could
    Tell you the difference in Iraq and Iran
    But I know Jesus and I talk to God
    And I remember this from when I was young

    Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us
    And the greatest is love

    I'm just a singer of simple songs
    I'm not a real political man
    I watch CNN but I'm not sure I could
    Tell you the difference in Iraq and Iran
    But I know Jesus and I talk to God
    And I remember this from when I was young

    Faith, hope and love are some good things He gave us
    And the greatest is love

    And the greatest is love

    And the greatest is love
