There Was a Time in America…

There was a time in America, when the Bible

was taught in the schools...

The ten commandments were displayed,

as “God’s set of rules.”

There was a time in America, where the

cross could be displayed...

Even In public places, people came

together and prayed.

There was a time in America,

 there was no “church and state” separation...

As people all across this country asked

God to help this nation.

There was a time in America, where

people knew right from wrong.

You could see it in the way they lived,

and could here it in their song.

There was a time in America where one

 was proud to be a Christian.

One could take stand for holiness,

without coming under “suspicion.”

There was a time in America, when

mom and dad were together…

Now, any kind a commitment to

marriage seems lost forever

There was a time in America, where many

were proud of “tradition.”

There seems to be a lack of any

kind of “spiritual nutrition.”

There was a time in America, where

so many could proudly say;

“I’m going to read the bible

and go to church on Sunday.”

This is the time for America, to wake

 up and try to understand...

We need to seek God right now! 

All over this land!

This is the time for America, to listen

and begin to hear…

The coming of our Lord is

drawing ever so near!

NOW is the time to seek the Lord,

while he may be found!

The word of God needs to be read

in every city and town!

Won’t you too seek God and listen

to his voice today?

Simply give him your heart and life. 

This could be YOUR day!
