One...
As the soot and dirt and ash rained down,
We became one color.
As we carried each other down the stairs of the burning building,
We became one class.
As we lit candles of waiting and hope,
We became one generation.
As the firefighters and police officers fought their way into the
inferno,
We became one gender.
As we fell to our knees in prayer for strength,
We became one faith.
As we whispered or shouted words of encouragement,
We spoke one language.
As we gave our blood in lines a mile long
We became one body.
As we mourned together the great loss,
We became one family.
As we cried tears of grief and anguish,
We became one soul.
As we retell with pride of the sacrifice of heroes
We become one people.

We are...
One color
One class
One generation
One gender
One faith
One language
One body
One family
One soul
One people
We are The Power of One.
One Nation, Under God, Indivisible.
We are United.
We are America.
