THAT'S THE DAY Words and Music by William T. Bonnell and Paul Howard I'll never forget that day There were no more Soldiers, Kings, or Slaves My memory of that day Is the sweet breathe Of true freedom We opened up the gates That's the day, that's the day We let freedom ring That's the day, that's the day We let freedom ring On that same day A mosque and a church Stood side by side I saw it clear that day The waves of terror Ceased to thunder We opened up our eyes That's the day, that's the day We saved the world That's the day, that's the day We saved the world Oh listen to the children They speak the truth Living in total freedom We celebrate the new Now that's the day, that's the day We let freedom ring That's the day, that's the day We let freedom ring I'll never forget that day There were no more Bombs being made In the sky that day The storms of hate Began to crumble All the dark clouds erased That's the day, that's the day We let freedom ring Yes that's the day, that's the day We saved the world Copyright 2011 William T.
