The tragedy that befell all of the innocents today moved everyone so very deeply....this is core stuff. I send my most heartfelt prayers to the grief stricken families to whom healing will probably never completely finish.

Twenty Six Lambs
John Kenney ©12/14/12
Twenty six lambs don't need tomorrow
Twenty six lambs don't wonder why
Leaving a place of hurt and sorrow
Twenty six lambs gone to the sky
Away now ~ where it doesn't hurt to be anymore
Gone away now ~ to a place those behind are hoping for
Twenty six birds begin their journey
Twenty six souls into the night
Twenty six times a million others
Wishing us all a fond goodbye
Away now ~ from all the pain and sorrow calm your mind
Gone away now ~ but is any part of leaving ever kind
Twenty six hearts are turned to wonder
Twenty six more begin to sigh
All for the sake of one asunder
Twenty six raise their voices high
Away now ~ reaching back to sooth the others left behind
Gone away now ~ but twenty six brand new stars start to shine
(instrumental)
Away now ~ from all the pain and sorrow calm your mind
Gone away now ~ is any part of leaving ever kind
