John Howard Poet Rhyme

Public School Prayer and Us Constitution

.....Stress prayer in the heart
                         in the home
                         in the you -
     In the family, the temple, the closet
                         please do.

     Stress prayer for the teacher
                         the searcher
                         the nation -
     By a Priest and the Rabbi
                         or Pastor persuasion.

     Stress prayer after school
                        your partner in strife -
     Keep prayer and thanksgiving 
                        first in your life.

     God’s will is a choice, we’re free to debate -
     He determines events: worship God, not the State.
