God Bless America

America has turned her back on God.
That’s why America is in turmoil and it’s way of life is hard.
We’re in a no win situation.
May God have mercy on this nation.
As my heart aches and my soul grieves.
The country as a whole has to pray and believe.
Let every head bow and everyone get on your knees.
Everyone in prayer say,” Lord please have mercy on us and forgive us please.”
Our days are short and our nights are long.
America needs to continue to pray to remain strong.
When you put God in second place;
As a result you’re moved away from God’s guidance and grace.
Look around that’s why it’s a decline in ethics and morality.
So open your eyes and explore the reality.
America has to stop looking at things with eyes and use her heart.
Putting the bible and prayer back in our homes and schools is where you first 
start.
Let’s pray for our politicians and leaders to be biblical wise.
I don’t know about you but to see America like this brings’ tears to my eyes.
America is manifested in licentiousness and not in holiness.
If America follows the Perpetuity Laws of God the she will be blessed

I'm not sure if God is really there... I have seen him in pictures though.. so I guess he must be....but I always wondered how those people knew what he looked like in the pictures....

So much truth in your words. We the People are starting to rise up. Too many years of apathy have gotten us to this place. In that there is hope. Congratulations on having your poem featured. Wishing you continued success with your writing. Karen
