My chest still tightens thinking about that day when I hear this song. The Lord was with you when you put this on paper. God bless you in the days ahead sir.

Tomorrow will be 20 years exactly since this tragic day. This song makes me cry everytime I listen to it. I was 5 years old when this happened and I vaguely remember we were getting ready to leave so my dad could take me to school. I'm not quite sure if school was cancelled after that, but I think my mom made me stay that day. Much love to the lives that were lost that day and to the people who lost their loved ones 💔💞💞 My mom loves and plays Alan Jackson all the time so I basically grew up listening to his songs, much respect to you sir! When this song came out she was crying

[dwts]

I was walking through the supermarket today, and heard this, I softly started to cry, I passed many, men and women crying as well, we will never forget

[Characterswrite]

I remember sitting on my couch in shock after waking my husband up to tell him what happened. And i saw it live when the second plane hit.

That day changed the world.

I’m a 9/11 survivor and all I can say is thank you Mr. Jackson. 🇺🇸❤️

[brandyhowell]

[sueelliott]

This song always makes me cry but it is also a great healer. That was one if not the worst day in American history and this song will help future generations to never forget and never get canceled. Thank you so much for all you do by sharing everyone's feelings in your music.

Love this song. It has always touched my heart. All I could do is cry and pray for all the families involved in all this. Thank you for this song. God was with you with this one.

[KelleyBroussardMackaig]

The hardest part of that tragic day for me was laying in bed that night - praying and sobbing myself to sleep for the poor children whose parents didn't come home to them that night. That was a level of heartbreak that absolutely gutted me. #WillNeverEverForget 🇺🇸

[vitorianoro]

your voice makes me dream thank you for singing

[jenniferdijames]

Wow Alan, Today is Friday September 10th. And you're talking about this song. Keep it coming buddy.

[alycedeal]

As someone who is to young to remember 9/11, I'm so glad you realsed and wrote this. Music has always been a way for me to empathize and sypmathize for what other people have gone thorugh o]if I haven't been through it myself and until the attack on the Captiol this year this song was the really only way I could truly understand the many feelings that came from the 9/11 attacks. so Thank You and God Bless Alan Jackson. @/neverforget
