Where Were You ~ Allan Jackson
Where Were You When The World Stopped Turnin' That September
Day, Out In The Yard (With) Your Wife And Children, Or Workin' On Some Stage In
LA. Did You Stand There In Shock At The Sight Of That Black Smoke, Risin'
Against That Blue Sky. Did You Shout Out In Anger And Fear For Your Neighbor Or
Did You Just Sit Down And Cry.
Did You Weep For The Children Who Lost Their Dear Loved
Ones, Pray For The Ones That 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, The Heroes Who Died Just Doin' What They Do.
Did You Look Up To Heaven For Some Kind Of Answer, And Look At Yourself For 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 Can 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 Stopped Turnin' That September
Day, Teachin' A Class Full Of Innocent Children, Or Drivin' 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 Love Her, Did You
Dust Off That Bible At Home.
Did You Open Your Eyes, Hope It Never Happened, Close Your
Eyes And Not Go To Sleep. Did You Notice The Sunset, First Time In Ages, Speak
To Some Stranger On The Street. And If You Lay Down At Night And Think Of
Tomorrow, Or Go Out And Buy You A Gun. Did You Turn Off That Violent Old Movie
You're Watchin', And Turn On 'I Love Lucy' Reruns. Did You Go To A Church And
Hold Hands With Some Stranger, 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.

if the love between a man and a man, or a woman and a woman is the same as a man and a woman, and if god is the one that gave us that love, then why do so many christans, catholics, protestants... etc.. find it so wrong? Allan Jackson says it very well i think, case and point.
