The same song has been going through my head too. A couple of the country stations here in town have been playing it.

one of our radio stations is playing this with interjections of Bush's speech between the lyrics - I've heard my co-workers speaking of this, have not heard it myself - but they both say it reduces them to tears.
edited to remove my usual tag line - lately there has been evidence that life is serious.

Thanks so much for the link I'm letting it play as background while reading the RT, which is hard to do with tears streaming.

Rosebids one of the stations here has done the same. Interspersed with reports of the tragedy unfolding. It does move one to tears.

The news showed the changing of the guard in London, instead of the usual "God Save the Queen" they played "The Star Spangled Banner" men and women wept. The anchorman (Peter Jennings) got emotional. I had a large lump in my throat. God Bless the United Kingdom, that was very touching.

Thanks nanandme, that's an excellent song and there's a lot of good tunes on that site.
Didn't Billy Ray Cyrus (or however you spell it) have a song a while back with something about God Bless the USA in it? I remember him performing with a big flag behind him on TV. I liked the song at the time... made me feel proud to be American.

I found this site tonight while doing some searching, and wanted to share it also...
http://www.ernie.cummings.net/lincoln.htm
It has the words to the Declaration of Independence, along with an essay of what happened to the brave men who signed it.
Also included is the Gettysburg Address - gave me chills to read these now. Our forefathers were wise beyond their time...
