TWO MILLION CAME - OBAMA'S INAUGURATION

Two million people came
More than ever before
To stand in the bitter cold
To pack our National Mall

He took his oath of office
On the Bible of the one who freed the slaves
He the symbol of righting
Three centuries of wrong

Many were behind him
Did you see them standing there?
All who fought and died
To make the dream come true

The people cheered and chanted
Cried tears of utter joy
As America once again became
The beacon for the world
