Before I Formed Thee

Just reading over an abortion chart, so very sad to see
In feeling this Country's Heart once the land of the free
Being given so very much as their heart has hardened
So many are out of touch perhaps you I even offend

Today it's one in five far better than the one in three
Eighty percent survive the others you will never see
As our youth now teach(us) as numbers begin to fall
In so sensing abortions reach they don't have such gall 

Even a non-believer can see but chooses not to do so
A wicked manmade decree as the seeds that they sow
As scientist look and look for even just one single cell
Get out the Good Book it makes it much easier to tell

Maybe soon it'll be 10% but when will the decree fall
Just from nine was it sent and 55 million we never saw
We will all go see Him one day and then He will ask you
So today I pray for deep down inside you know it's true

Jeremiah 1:5
Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; 
and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, 
and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
