On this first Sunday after the elections we should look to God to help get us through what is ahead of us. Bucking the establishment is not going to be an easy task.

First Sunday After Elections
By Franklin Price
11/13/2016

First Sunday after elections
A chill is in the air
Both weather wise and otherwise
I think that statement would be fair

The man who was elected
To be the leader of this land
Has much to learn of politics
Much he doesn't understand

 God help him in his journey
For this country needs you so
To guide his thoughts and plans for us
Show him the way to go

And God while you are at it
Help the Senate and the House
Cooperate more fully
As a husband with a spouse

Lord knows there will be arguments
Negotiations must be done
Help the Senate and the House 
And the elected one

Help the ones who did not vote for him
Give this elected man a chance
While being a close chaperon
Of the dancers at the dance

Help the people stand behind him
After all we put him there
To fix the problems that we have
We put him in the highest chair

God we voted to elect him
Please help him be the one
To have this country great again
When his elected term is done
