On this page, I'll be not only posting poems I wrote, but other pieces that means alot to either me and/or David. 

"Separation Of Church And State"

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. (36 United States Code USC),
Section 186)

"In God We Trust" has been on our coins since 1863, even before it was our
national motto. (31 USC, Section 5112(D)(1))

Our Pledge of Allegiance cites "one nation under God."

Both state legislatures and United States Congress employ paid chaplains to pray at the opening of all sessions.

All military branches of the United States government have paid chaplains.

The inscription on the Liberty Bell cites Leviticus 25:10.

"And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you;  and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family."

A portrait of Moses with the Ten Commandments hangs above the Speaker's
chair in the United States Congress.  (But this is illegal in our public schools and municipal government buildings.)

It is shameful that the very institution which governs us and makes the laws are able to display the Ten Commandments but the citizens cannot. Does this form of government sound familiar?

The Library of Congress (another government institution) has statues of the apostle Paul and Moses, and it has large inscriptions of Micah 6:8 and Psalms 19:1 prominently displayed.  (Try pulling that off at the next high school football game.)

"He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" Micah 6:8

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his
handiwork." Psalms 19:1

The Lincoln Memorial (Government property) has chiseled on it, "Judgments of the Lord are righteous."

The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is dedicated to a soldier "Known but to
God."

There is a prayer room in Congress.  (Go tell your local school board you want the same thing that "our" Government has....a prayer room. Better yet, ask the ACLU if they will either allow prayer rooms in our schools or fight to have the one in our Government removed... just for grins of course.)

This has to be the best one yet.

The very branch of our US Government which ruled against prayers at a high school football game opens the Supreme Court Session with the words, "God save the United States and this honorable court."  They do this publicly, not privately.

The United States Constitution refers to Jesus, stating the Constitution was signed in 1787 "in the year of our Lord." (Could the US Government explain which "Lord" they were referring to on this document, if not Jesus?)

The United States Government has mandated "National Day of Prayer."  (36
USC, Section 169(h)).  (Think about that.... The very government which has ruled against public prayer at schools because of the misguided "Separation of Church and State" doctrine has mandated a "National Day of Prayer" -- by US Government Law!!)

Separation of Church and State.  Maybe it is the believers in the US who
have been separated from the State.  Has that ever happened in recent world history?  Think about it.

God Bless America!

"Help me hold on"- Calvin Cook

 

I see the stupid things I let in my life and all the pain they bring makes me wanna cry.

I know that Youre with me and Im glad, but still I seem to fall and that really makes me mad.

It never seems to work. I try so hard, but I still seem to fall.

I fell so far from You and it seems that I can never win, but still youre there for me and You pick me up again.

You give me forgiveness for free, so all I wanna do is not let You down.

To Forgive - Al Denson


Well I have never been the kind
To let too many get behind
The wall that I have built around my heart
And now I find myself afraid

And feeling like Ive been betrayed
By one that I have trusted from the start

But friends are only human and at times theyre gonna fall
But when it hurts the most is when they need you most of all

To forgive
Is to reach out to your brother
As one friend to another
No matter what the cost
To forgive
Is to leave the past behind you
And pray tomorrow finds you
Stronger for the journey
As every day were learning
To forgive

It was another place and time
When I had failed a friend of mine
And there was no one else to take the blame
But when He could have turned away
Somehow He found the strength to stay
His love for me was stronger than the pain

In light of all His mercy its much easier to see
That even from the cross the Lord was calling you and me

God Bless You - Calvin Cook

I seek in prayerful words, dear friend,

My hearts true wish to send you,

That you may know that, far or near,

My loving thoughts attend you.

I cannot find a truer word,

Or better way to address you;

No song or poem have I read

Is sweeter than God Bless You!

God Bless You! So Ive wished you all

Of brightness life possesses;

For can there be any joy at all

Be yours unless God blesses?

God Bless You! So I breathe a charm

Unless griefs dark night apress you,

For how can sorrow bring you harm,

If its Gods way to bless you?

And so, through all the days

May shadows never touch you;

But this alone, "God bless you"

Then you are safe forever more.
