One fine day, they all gathered to pray,
it was a very special Friday.
There was so much hurt,
on this day in Christchurch.
Smoke and dust filled the mosque,
the whole country was in shock.
One by one lives were lost,
you never once thought at what cost.
It wasn't fair,
there was so much despair.
What was their mistake,
that they earned this fate.
You thought that you have divided us,
but instead you have united us.
I pray one day you see the light,
as love is greater than any might.
