In the palm of Uncreated Light,
Calvary shined Oh, what a sight!
And In that death valley of wreckage and steel,
his trembling legs could only kneel
A message of triumph to renounce fear and doubt
and he marked the spot and said,” This is God’s house”

In the Ground Zero Grotto,
a remnant is left standing,
two steel beams with a
message transcending…..

A Steel Cross found
by a WTC worker
becomes an inspiration
from the Twin Tower ruins

This Cross stands suspended
in time and space
and fills a gap
between happier days
and that day of infamy
when the world stood still
our hearts forever broken
and eyes tear filled

A Steel Cross
Is found by the WTC workers
And is carried to a Church
From the Ground Zero Grotto
And soon the crowds
of people will follow
to help bring a respite
from their unending sorrow

This Cross that belongs to us,
is our Cross to bear,
but, it’s also our helper
the burden we share
Our strong Crucible
standing firm in its purpose
Our steel Cross
with a metal shroud
that can never be beautiful

As I’ve lived my life through
triumph and loss,
I’ve always seen beauty
in the Cross
But, this steel Cross I see
stands eerily dutiful
because this is the Cross
that can never be beautiful

A Steel Cross is found
By the WTC Workers
And becomes an inspiration
From the Twin Tower Ruins

Thank you for your service,
love, and dedication,
for the sharing of this Cross,
now it’s our inspiration
and your selfless acts of courage
shall never be forgotten
as generations hear your story
and remember the fallen

This Cross stands suspended
in time and space
and fills a gap
between happier days
and that day of infamy
when the world stood still
our hearts forever broken
and eyes tear filled

A Steel Cross is found
By the WTC Workers
And becomes an inspiration
From the Twin Tower Ruins

And in memory of our
loved ones lost on that day,
We stand in the promise
We will see you again
And as our spirit transcends
To new heights, love surpasses,
Like a Steel Cross
That rises up through the ashes

A Steel Cross
Is found by the WTC workers
and becomes our inspiration from
the Twin Tower ruins….

And In the Ground Zero Memorial,
one remnant is left standing,
two steel beams with a
a message transcending….

In the palm of Uncreated Light,
Calvary shined Oh, what a sight!
