The song “When The Towers Rise Again” was written to Honor the Heroes and Victims of the 9-11 terror attacks. It is almost ten years since the horrific events of that day changed the world for ever and emphasized, sadly once again, that there is Evil in the world.
Just as important is the understanding that Evil will Always be Defeated by Good.
“Towers” is not a song which looks Back to that September day, but looks Forward to the time when a new monument to Freedom and Life will rise from the foundation which is built upon the Souls of those whose lives were taken and upon the Souls of those whose lives were given, in Sacrifice.
We can Never re-build a material structure which will ever rival the Strength, Integrity, or Courage, which came from the Hearts of those who now dwell in Freedom’s Light.
It is our Hope that “Towers” will bring Healing to the families who lost their loved ones and bring Healing, even if in some small way, to a world which so desperately yearns for Peace.
We Will NEVER Forget Their Sacrifice!!
God Bless America!

Dark can be The Heart, As Dark as Deepest Night,
When Truth it Seeks to Hide, Enslaves and Blinds our Sight,
But Those who would Be Free, Within the Light They Live,
They Died for Liberty, And Freedom’s Gift they Give,
When the Towers Rise Again, Reaching Higher than Before,
Through Clouds and Far Above the Stars they’ll Soar,
They’ll be Built upon the Souls, Who have Conquered Darkest Night,
To Rise Again Once More, In Freedom’s Light,
Dark can be The Mind, That Justifies with Hate,
A Shadow on Mankind, Destruction is its Fate,
But Those who Died for Peace, Their Sacrifice….. Divine,
For Ever Honored Be, And Justice They Shall Find,
When the Towers Rise Again, Reaching Higher than Before,
Through Clouds and Far Above the Stars they’ll Soar,
They’ll be Built upon the Souls, Who have Conquered Darkest Night,
To Rise Again Once More, In Freedom’s Light,
Dark can be The Soul, Much Darker than The Night,
When Death becomes its Goal, Claiming Evil as its Right,
But This Day We Recall, Of Heroes We Shall Tell,
When Towers Proud did Fall, And Sons and Daughters Fell,
Their Spirits Will Take Flight, On Eagles Wings They’ll Ride,
To Dwell Beyond our Sight, Where Free and Brave Reside,
When the Towers Rise Again, Reaching Higher than Before,
Through Clouds and Far Above the Stars they’ll Soar,
They’ll be Built upon the Souls, Who have Conquered Darkest Night,
To Rise Again Once More In Freedom’s Light,
To End the Darkness, With Freedom’s Light,
Defeat The Darkness, With Freedom’s Light, There is No Darkness,
In Freedom’s LIGHT!!!
