Choose One; The Constitution Or The
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By James Pemberton
Other Poems by James Pemberton


Choose One:  The Constitution Or The Bible?

 

From our t.v., courts and government institutions,

We often hear about the U.S.. Constitution.

 

As many cry what is and isn’t “constitutional;.”

It’s a wonder how this country is till functional!

 

As courts remove the Bible and it’s commandments.

They look to the constitution for some kind of “enlightenment.”

 

The freedom of religion, which the early fathers taught.

Is now “freedom from religion” is what’s in many thoughts.

 

It’s almost like the courts “wave the magic wand.”

And then tell us the difference between “right and wrong.”

 

Many Godly principles have often been disregarded.

 God’s word in many homes, has often been discarded.

 

Without God in many lives, this has left an empty void.

As perversions of God’s word

are taught and “enjoyed.”

 

It’s time to wake up America!  And begin to see!

It’s only God and his word that gives true liberty!

 

We’re quietly becoming a nation of bondage and sin.

As so many struggle with afflictions within!

 

We all need to let God’s word daily renew or mind!

Even though we’re busy…  We need to take the time!

 

God was here before the constitution was written!

It’s time to come to him!  Will our country listen???

 

Because of Jesus… There is no “man and God separation!”

The truth of his word is what’s needed in our nation!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
