Sixteen Acres Of Hallowed Sacred Ground
Lyrics and music By: Diane Lorraine Fisher

There are sixteen acres of hallowed sacred ground
So many lives were lost, so few that could be found
We call this place ground zero, the rescuers our hero
We wondered how we could survive, knowing that so many died.

We ask where is our God, when there is so much pain,
We fall down to our knees and cry with no restrain
We pray for faith and Glory, Lord let your love restore me,
When all our hope is lost, you reveal to us a cross.

Chorus:
And there is hope when I pray, that God will heal our souls today.
No tragedy can hold me, from a promise that he told me,
Through my pain you will mold me, In your Amazing Grace.

A place we call God
