I won't ever understand
When folks cause such a stir
Wondering why the Lord allows
All kinds of  evil to occur!

For years now, we've rejected Him
Ignored His words and rules
And then, as icing on the cake
We banned Him from the schools!

Not only did we turn our backs
On His death and on His Name...
A frightening, growing lot of us
Deny he ever came!

We ridiculed His teachings
Took the Ten Commandments down
Still, every Sunday...there we are
Our hypocrisy knows no bounds!

We treat God like a  fairy tale
If we think of Him at all...
Unless, of course, we're in a jam
With our backs against the wall!

God bless the USA rings out
From all states far and wide
Well, don't look now, America
But I submit....He's tried!!

For 2000 years He's struggled
Trying to make us see the light
But even after all this time
We still won't do what's right!

Should He stay where He's not wanted?
What can a Father do?
When children act like spoiled brats
Then brag about it, too!

So why are we suprised to find
That evil plays for keeps?
We should have paid attention
For what we've planted, we shall reap!

Pornography and decadence
Immorality breeds contempt
Murder, drugs, teen suicides
Nothing's sacred or exempt!!

Mankind apparently will not listen
Or even admit they've made mistakes
Till they see Hell approaching fast
And realize they have no brakes!!
