Analysis of Religion Today
With all the debate on religion today,
Where do we turn when time to pray,
We claim in God we truly trust,
But disbelievers are standing amongst us ,
Can’t mention the word God in our schools,
Just who now is making the rules,
Are we a nation founded under God?
Or are we a nation slightly flawed,
Should we stand as a wall and proclaim our faith?
Do we hope the opposers will somehow fade away,
Are all of our dreams no longer at our command,
Or are we seeing the final days of man?
