AMERICA, DON'T FORGET GOD

America, Don't Forget God

by Margaret Cagle

Devout Christians sailed from Europe
To worship God freely in a new land.
As they started various colonies here,
They were led by God's divine hand.

God blessed this humble new nation
As leaders sought to follow His plan,
And the citizens wanted each leader
To be a wise, Godly Christian man.

Eventually America became involved
With troubles overseas and here.
God brought this nation through wars
To preserve our freedom so dear.

Over the decades our dear nation
From almighty God has gone astray.
In our schools, Bibles aren't welcome,
And it is against the rules to pray.

How can a great nation so abundantly
Blessed so much by God's great love
Seem to forget about honoring God,
Who is still on His throne above?

America, please do not forget God.
This could bring a great downfall.
Let us repent and turn back to Him.
Upon His holy name, let us call.
