Tribute to the victims of 9/11
As I write this, we are only seven short hours away from the exact monent, five years on, that the first plane hit the World Trade Centre in New York, on a fateful day which has since been known as 9/11.
On this particular occasion, I have decided to hold all the posts which I had planned, and instead post this tribute to the victims of 9/11. I have deicded to have a special 9/11 Musicians Of The Week award, as I think The Seekers, and their song “We Shall Not Be Moved” are a fitting tribute to all who were killed, injured, or otherwise affected by the terrible events of 9/11.
On this day of reflection, I wish all of the survivors all the best, and mourn for those who did not survive.
Samuel
Well I’m on my way to heaven,
We shall not be moved.
On our way to heaven
We shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side,
We shall not be moved.We shall not, we shall not be moved.
We shall not, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side
We shall not be moved.Well we’re on that road to freedom,
We shall not be moved.
On that road to freedom
We shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side,
We shall not be moved.We’re brothers together,
We shall not be moved.
We’re brothers together,
We shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side
We shall not be moved.Lord, we shall not, we shall not be moved.
We shall not, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side
We shall not be moved.Lord, we’re on our way to heaven,
We shall not be moved.
Lord, on that way to heaven
We shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side,
We shall not be moved.We shall not, we shall not be moved.
Oh, we shall not, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s standin’ by the water side
(Whoa, just like a tree that’s standin’ down by the water side)
We shall not be moved.
