[Title] Windows to the World [Verse 1] At the top, a window opened wide, Across the river, through the city’s tide. A room of voices, meals, and ordinary days, Precious lives beneath the turning sky’s gaze. [Verse 2] September came, and changed the shape of home, So many hearts were left to grieve alone. We speak their names in all the ways we can: A child, a friend, a neighbor, woman, man. [Chorus] Windows to the world, keep open, keep kind, Make room for every life we leave behind. When someone calls, let compassion answer true; There is a place in every heart for you. [Verse 3] We remember those who ran toward harm, The steady hands, the sheltering arm. The ones who searched, who carried, stayed, and heard, Who met the worst with care in every word. [Bridge] Our lives are fragile; still, our hands can mend. We can meet fear with mercy, friend by friend. Seek justice with our humanity held near, And walk toward peace with courage, not with fear. [Chorus] Windows to the world, keep open, keep kind, Make room for every life we leave behind. When someone calls, let compassion answer true; There is a place in every heart for you. [Outro] For all we lost, for all who grieve and serve, We hold their memory with love they deserve. We stand together, let hope guide what we do; A window open, looking out for you.
