Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after 911 when the twin towers came down.
Song Description
No one can explain why bad things happen to good people. Why tragedy is part of living. But following a tragedy, it's not the time to have anger but to express love for one another and find your inner strength. It's also important to faith in a larger power to help us get through those difficult times.

Lyrics
Strength From Within
When the world around you feels like it's tumbling down
And you cannot find peace of mind
Do not give in to evil, though evil's all around
Look above and find strength from within
(Chorus)
Clap your hands, look to heaven
Clap your hands, look to heaven
Clap your hands, look to heaven
To find strength from within.
When there is no answer to the question, "Why Lord?"
"Why do bad things happen to the good?"
Do not fear the uncertain, though uncertainty abounds
Look above and find strength from within
(Chorus)
We all need one and other
Every sister and every brother
When we love each other
We find strength from within
(Chorus)
Machelle M. Seibel (ASCAP)
