God Today

Freedom Fighter Richard A. Sandberg
Back in the days of our fore fathers In the land of Queens and Kings. There were men who believed in God But weren't free to worship and sing. So they traveled across the ocean. To a land so far away. They landed in America and here they decided stay. They fought to gain their freedom for freedom is never free, but all they fought and died for Is crumbling, oh, can't you see No longer does America Believe, "In God We Trust" Their eyes are focused on themselves and their hearts are filled with lust. There is no longer a standard by which were expected to obey, Whatever's right for you is fine but now the Lord will say, "I will not bless a country that seldom hears My voice if you do not turn to Me soon You may give Me no choice" What this country really needs is Christians who'll stand for what's right. People who will stand up for Jesus and boldly for Jesus now fight. So before God stops blessing tell your friends all around about God's great freedom we now fight for and have found. Be a rock for Jesus and for Christ now stand. Turn this country back to God And He will bless this land.

"The highest glory of the American Republic was this;
it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government
with the principles of Christianity. From the day of Declaration the American
people were bound by the laws of God and the Gospel, which they nearly
all acknowledged as the rules of their conduct."
John Quincy Adams
