Does God Care Who Wins a Football Game
Does God Care Who Wins a Football Game?
By Elton Camp
There are just a few words I'd like to say
As to things for which it's proper to pray
To request divine blessings is usually okay
But some words border on blasphemy to say
To ask God to bring victory in a football game
Is a prayer that's ignored because it's so lame
Can anyone truly think to God it has occurred
That one team over the other is to be preferred
Yet sometimes here in Alabama where I reside
Victory is asked for Auburn or the Crimson Tide
Folks who to God such a request have named
In my opinion should be most deeply ashamed
