Ten Commandments

The Ten Commandments


Why are these stones 
So important they say
Do we really need them? 
Let us remove them from display


It's more than just old engraved stones
That we place upon our walls
 It was written by the finger of God
 It established our Constitution
It's the foundation of our Laws


We must always guard this Landmark
Never allow them to take them away
Write them upon the post of our house
Write them upon the gates and highway


Write them upon the table of our heart
We must teach them to our children
And diligently pray


 Our land is filled with violence
 Crimes floods the streets
 Why Because we have forsaken
   The laws that made us free.


 America! Bring prayer back in our schools
 Let's let God's Law be the Golden Rule
 Yes, we need the Ten Commandments
 Let us not be a Fool
