Straight To Hell
Where is my country- where has it gone
Why does it death wish instead of live on
The way that it used to when God was its head
When Washington heeded each Word Father said?
Where is the Spirit that once filled its heart
That taught it to always be state of the art?
Where is the wonder, the joy and the fun
That overflowed through us when we were all one
Before special interests decided to kill
What once was so sacred and blest in God’s will?
What drove it to give in to ignorant bliss
And those who are blind to what truth really is?
Whose fault made it happen- whose self-serving plan
Decided to rebuild our future on sand
Where noise is called music and role models few
Where Supreme Court judges say what we can do?
Is this what we worked, hoped, and prayed for each day
To let godless lawyers and fools have their way?
I don’t think so either so let’s fix it now
Before God’s pure patience decides to run out
Before the wrong people take total control
And plot to make iron from what once was gold
Let’s send them a message as clear as a bell:
‘If you don’t do God’s will you’ll go straight to hell’
I wrote this in anger- the kind God inspires
Like earthquakes and lightning and deadly wildfires
Like prophecy warned of a terrible flood
And wars that require the shedding of blood
Look out unbelievers, the hour is near
When extreme acts of God cause unspeakable fear
But only in those who refuse to believe
That Jesus can save them before we all leave
Before Father’s angels show up to collect us
From those who ignored truth and tried to infect us
Let’s echo this message and firmly repel
The sinners who’ve chosen to go straight to hell
