IGNORE NOT STOP SIGN

"Don't ignore the stop sign on a big yellow school bus even if you are in a hurry, the cops might be around the corner watching you." We strive to be honest, nothing to hide Championing decency with humble stride Yet proofs show otherwise We're also fools, not wise when we ignore stop sign, just on our side. Let's not ignore yellow school bus' stop sign Such serves as warning with cheerful design Though we're in a hurry Feeling late, we're sorry We ought to comply; to rules, we align. Obeying road-safety rules is a must While the Lord Who does protect us, we trust* Thanking cops with their seal Who do their best midst zeal So when we're caught against laws, such is just. *Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths.
