Do you believe in God, do you try to live, by the ten commandments?
Do you show it, in your actions, teaching others, or just believe, in your mind?
God created everything, in a perfect way, Sundays use to be a day,
To attend Services, and pray, without one day for your spiritual beliefs,
The words, wisdom, are fading over time. Children many generations,
Also adults never taught a religion, they could get you a gun faster,
Than you could, teach them to pray, look into the future, without believers,
Teaching, respect, morals, love, and that our soul travels another way, after this life stay.
Is this part of the reason, so much violence, among,
Children and teens today? If you do not know, Jesus, or believe, in God, you may not care about human life anyway.
Or species, will fade, a lot of pain, suffering, to reach that day.
Lawmakers removed praying from schools, you cannot bring that here,
No way, what else is banned from schools?
Guns, knives, they can hurt you or others, or kill, they are saying, praying, is also dangerous, stay away.. Or is all a test from God,
For those who say they believe, to start showing, and teaching,
In your own ways, it would be a challenge, to fill a church with children,
For one hour, to listen, without talking, or cell phones today,
Actions louder than words. We do not want God to doubt us on judgement day.
