The Ancient Landmark
THE ANCIENT LANDMARK - "Remove not the ancient landmark which Your Father has set" Proverbs 22:28
The cornerstone is set,
In place for all to see.
One nation Under god,
Forever it will be.
Founding Fathers showed the way,
Free people need to be.
Boundaries within morality,
Only God can set you free.
Navigation points for life,
Set down for one and all.
Move them and you lose,
The beginning of your fall.
Life is a dangerous terrain,
Our culture demands the best.
Stray at your peril,
For then you fail the test.
Confusion and darkness,
Will then guide your way.
When you move the boundary stone,
You leave our Lord and stray.
We have traded liberty,
For government's open hand.
We depend on them to live,
Alone we cannot stand.
Moral, ethical and spiritual,
Our navigation hopelessly lost.
The devastation now begins,
Patriotism has been tossed.
We are duped, with miss-leading news,
Political correctness from birth.
Seek you now the Landmark,
Ours is the greatest land on earth.
