The Decision

Harrowing, excruciating, who ever thought
That my faith in God could ever be bought
You may be wondering, “How could this be?”
Just wait a moment, I’ll tell you, you’ll see…

It all began several years back
When prayer in school was under attack
It’s just a formality you heard everyone say
I thought, “Big deal…at home they can pray”

I continued to sit back and made no fuss
As children grew violent and started to cuss
I knew better then, but it was too late
It was called separation between church and state

That’s not all, it gets worse than this
I pretended to live in a state of mere bliss
As outside my home drug dealers were paid
And I totally ignored that “Roe versus Wade”

What did I do to stop all this mess?
Absolutely nothing, I have to confess
Now ministering Jesus no more is allowed
And that “anti-Christ” leader has everyone wowed

Now I’ve been brought here with a choice to make
Will I forsake Christ and live or die for His sake?
Oh, I know that He made the right choice for me
But, I want to live so with them I’ll agree

It was a very tough choice I am sure you can note
But there is one last thing I would rather you quote:
“If only I had spoken up a long time ago ...
I shouldn't have traded my faith for this woe.”
