The Little Sisters

They're the Little Sisters of the Poor so devoted in their deeds And suddenly they are at war or at least as Obama Care reads They wanted to fine them dearly or give up their religious belief A mismatch all had thought clearly but for a little heavenly relief Accused of "fighting an invisible dragon", and called "implausible" too Such wickedness they would usually shun but this attack of evil is new And there they are so meek in their way their only weapon being prayer Many are very old and long since grey yet for whom is it not fair The Little Sisters just won their last battle a shot right to their face But I still hear the snakes rattle slithering around in such disgrace With such a dismissive tone as is their attitude towards all liberty But His Light has just shone and now everyone can clearly see The Nuns will forever fight having the Lord close to their side Shining His Light on all that this administration tries so hard to hide But the Little Sisters of the poor such a precious special group It took them to say no more, we won't jump through your hoop Saint Jeanne Jugan we pray for humble hearts.
