I
PLEDGE ALLEGIENCE TO THE FLAG
OF
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
AND
TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS
ONE
NATION UNDER GOD
INDIVISBLE
WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL
FLAG
DAY is June 14.
This
page is in honor of our FLAG and all it stands for!



Now I sit
me down in school
Where praying
is against the rule
For this great
nation under God
Finds mention
of Him very odd.
If Scripture
now the class recites,
It violates
the Bill of Rights.
And anytime
my head I bow
Becomes a
Federal matter now.

Our hair can
be purple, orange or green,
That's no
offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is
specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken
aloud are a serious vice.
For praying
in a public hall
Might offend
someone with no faith at all.
In silence
alone we must meditate,
God's name
is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed
to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce
our noses, tongues and cheeks.
They've outlawed
guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the
Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect
a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed
daddy,' our Senior King.
It's "inappropriate"
to teach right from wrong,
We're taught
that such "judgments" do not belong.

We can get
our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft,
vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten
Commandments are not allowed,
No word of
God must reach this crowd
It's scary
here I must confess,
When chaos
reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord,
this silent plea I make:
Should I be
shot; My soul please take!
Amen

Stars
and Stripes
When
I see that great flag of the United States of America
I see more than just a flag ...

I'm
reminded of our SAVIOR and His great Plan of Eternity
for us.

The
STARS remind me of the vast universe, which HE
spoke into existence through HIS divine power.

The
BLUE BACKGROUND behind the stars puts me in mind of
HIS Promise of Heaven that awaits all those who believe
in HIM.

The
RED STRIPES tell me of the stripes HE endured
on HIS back to pay for my sins, and of the Precious
Blood HE shed for an undeserving wretch like me.

The
WHITE STRIPES symbolize to me His perfect Innocence
and the white burial cloth HE left behind on that third
day when
HE arose from the tomb that could not hold HIM, fulfilling
HIS
Promise that death could have no hold over us! I find
my eyes
going back to the corner of our flag, and I see that
Promised Land,
BEYOND THE STARRY SKY!

So,
when I see that great flag, OLD GLORY, I see more than
our
flag and its history - I see HIS STORY and our Father's
glorious
Promise of SALVATION to ALL WHO WILL BELIEVE IN HIS
SON, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST!
AND
GOD BLESS AMERICA I PRAY!
