Today's Culture
TODAY'S CULTURE
Rhett Butler said to Scarlett O'Hara
Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn
The movie industry hurtled a barrier
And American culture took a slam
In today's language it is totally denoted
The word damn is preceded by God
Though against it, many Christians have voted
Their values have been greatly trod
Movies, with such blatant disregard
For the principles on which we were founded
Make movies that should be forever barred
And the voice of sanity be sounded
As a nation, America is falling
Like a meteor hurtling through space
Politicians are missing their calling
Many term our country a disgrace
But Scripture will point us to glory
If God's Word America would heed
Then all would know the end of the story
Eternal life in Heaven, indeed
