God Bless America
Calvin A. Messick, Sr. 1950 (Ohio)
God Bless America
“God Bless America”, is still the patriot’s and Christian’s cry
But is America’s turning from God a reason why?
While looking for answers, maybe the question we should try
God out of schools, abortion, homosexuality, pride; truth, I’m not shy
Judgment is consistent when you read through the book
Examine the things that Israel’s been through; take a look
Isaiah 3 & 4, oppressed by children, women in rule; don’t get shook
We are spiritual Israel; circumcision of our heart, what has Satan took?
Christians around the world losing freedom, made slaves, jailed too
Persecution is foretold as reality, part of becoming tried and true
Through much tribulation do we enter into heaven, now what to do
Repent, turn back to God, let Jesus be Lord of all; yes, me and you
False preachers and teachers have been leading many astray
A wicked and perverse generation looks for a sign; the Word does say
Yet crusade after crusade for signs and miracles we see today
And get rich prosperity teachings when you send money my way
The Church of the Laodiciens; in America to our shame
Rich and in need of nothing, any wonder terrorist’s take aim
Jesus at the door knocking, wanting back in, all of us to blame
Oh, how we need the baptism of fire to purge and be a blazing flame
So let’s repent & humble ourselves, turn back to God and pray
Pray the Holy Spirit instruct us and let us not stray
Remember that to be happy in Jesus; “We must TRUST and OBEY”
Then maybe once again will God Bless America; that’s all I have to say
