The 10 Commandments


Much talk of separation of Church and State,
That's been causing quite a bit of debate;
You know about a memorial of God's Law,
That stood Alabama's great justice hall;
There it was standing right in plain view,
To think that some call it as being taboo;
A couple of lawyers should not have been,
A higher authority's laws not be seen;
How could anyone ever think to permit,
Since it's not a church they don't fit;
Excuse me but we're missing a thought,
But forgetting what we were taught;
America was founded on God's decree,
And the founding fathers all did agree;
No laws against God ever be written,
Or the 10 Commandments be smitten;
With removing them the lawyers shout,
That the laws of God never did count;
Maybe it's the same for the Liberty Bell,
Then those lawyers can rot in Hell.

The 10 Commandments
To Move or Not To Move

That is the question and need to pray for an answer.
