> AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL
> by Judge Roy Moore
>
> America the Beautiful, or so you used to be.
> Land of the Pilgrims' pride, I'm glad they'll never see
> Babies piled in dumpsters, Abortion on demand,
> Oh, sweet land of liberty, your house is built on sand.
>
> Our children wander aimlessly, poisoned by cocaine,
> Choosing to indulge their lusts, when God has said abstain.
> From sea to shining sea, our Nation turns away
> From the teaching of God's love and a need to always pray.
>
> So many worldly pastors tell lies about our Rock,
> Saying God is going broke so they can fleece the flock.
> We've kept God in our temples, how callous we have grown,
> When earth is but His footstool and Heaven is His throne.
>
> We've voted in a government that's rotting at the core,
> Appointing Godless Judges who throw reason out the door,
> Too soft to place a killer in a well deserved tomb,
> But brave enough to kill a baby before he leaves the womb.
>
> You think that God's not angry that our land's a moral slum?
> How much longer will He wait before His judgment comes?
> How are we to face our God from Whom we cannot hide?
> What then is left for us to do, but stem this evil tide?
>
> If we who are His children will humbly turn and pray,
> Seek His holy face and mend our evil way,
> Then God will hear from Heaven and forgive us of our sins,
> He'll heal our sickly land and those who live within.
>
> But America the Beautiful if you don't, then you will see,
> A sad but Holy God withdraw His hand from thee.
> AMEN!
