The following is a poem written by Judge Roy Moore from Alabama.
\nJudge Moore was sued by the ACLU for displaying the Ten Commandments in his courtroom foyer. He has been stripped of his judgeship and now they are trying to strip his right to practice law in Alabama. The judge’s poem sums it up quite well. <\/p>\n
America the Beautiful, or so you used to be.
\nLand of the Pilgrims’ pride; I’m glad they’ll never see. <\/p>\n
Babies piled in dumpsters, Abortion on demand,
\nOh, sweet land of liberty; your house is on the sand. <\/p>\n
Our children wander aimlessly, poisoned by cocaine
\nchoosing to indulge their lusts, when God has said abstain <\/p>\n
From sea to shining sea, our Nation turns away
\nFrom the teaching of God’s love and a need to always pray. <\/p>\n
We’ve kept God in our temples, how callous we have grown.
\nWhen earth is but His footstool, and Heaven is His throne. <\/p>\n
We’ve voted in a government that’s rotting at the core,
\nAppointing Godless Judges; who throw reason out the door, <\/p>\n
Too soft to place a killer in a well deserved tomb,
\nBut brave enough to kill a baby before he leaves the womb. <\/p>\n
You think that God’s not angry, that our land’s a moral slum?
\nHow much longer will He wait before His judgment comes? <\/p>\n
How are we to face our God, from Whom we cannot hide?
\nWhat then is left for us to do, but stem this evil tide? <\/p>\n
If we who are His children, will humbly turn and pray;
\nSeek His holy face and mend our evil way: <\/p>\n
Then God will hear from Heaven; and forgive us of our sins,
\nHe’ll heal our sickly land and those who live within. <\/p>\n
But, America the Beautiful, if you don’t – then you will see,
\nA sad but Holy God withdraw His hand from Thee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
