In the blink of an eye

Nature steps in

Breaths fire in our face

Determined to win

In the blink of an eye

You’re told to run

You must leave now

Each and everyone 

In the blink of an eye

Grab what you can

And do so fast

There is no time to plan

In the blink of an eye

The sky goes black

The smoke takes the reins 

And begins the attack

In the blink of an eye

The flames consume

Destruction ensues

One must never assume

In the blink of an eye

Feeling displaced and lost

Thousands lose their homes

Oh, what a steep cost

In the blink of an eye

The masses unite

People stand up

Ready to fight 

In the blink of an eye

We will rebuild

Prepared to persevere 

Determined and skilled 

In the blink of an eye

We open our hearts

Love withstands

Donations off the charts

In the blink of an eye

Despite devastating loss

We’re standing together 

Showing who’s boss

In the blink of an eye

It’s not over yet

We’ll do what we can

We’ll never forget

What can happen, in the blink of an eye
