Remembering 9/11: The Music That Gave Us Hope, Strength, And Courage [VIDEO]

Music is the fabric of and has defined seminal events in our American History. None more so than the songs created during the wars this country has fought. Songs from the American Revolution to today sing of our Patriotism, Freedom, Courage, and Defiance against all odds.

On that day, on September 11, 2001, as our world imploded due to one of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil, people turned to their family, faith, friends, and music.

One of the most profound moments that I will never forget is standing with hundreds of others at a mall for a special prayer service. I still get chills when I recall hundreds of us singing America The Beautiful, God Bless America, and Amazing Grace as we prayed for Americans lost and the families left behind.

Today we have the music of 9/11 and beyond. Songs written and sung in honor of those we lost, songs written to help us as we grieve, songs in support of our troops, honoring America, and in defiance of the terrorists who still seek to destroy us.
