Man's Responsibility

Mankind's place within society
to be the family's ultimate head
ruling and reigning with authority
this the scripture have clearly said

The woes of today's society
are seen when we look back
as man has relinquished responsibility
and refuses to keep on track

They've allowed women to take over
to sit in man's authoritative place
this is not the divine position
ordained at creation of human race

The world's woes and troubles
will never be put right
till man accepts divine instruction
to do what God says is right
