SING A LITTLE LOUDER
By Marilyn Poythress 8/20/2010 KCMO
When the German Church heard prisoners cry from the train
They just sang a little louder in their Christian refrains.
When they heard the train whistle, heading toward the death camps
They sang a little louder so no conscience was cramped
We see praying children ordered off the court steps
So they do what they’re told and step down to the left
We’re told the Court Rulings are the Law of the land
So we follow like sheep, and obey their command.
We watch the world’s bankers collecting their fees
But we smile and we borrow, like fools on a spree !
We see corporations breaking Farmer Brown’s back
But ignore the Constitution to bring America back !
We hear Legislators giving our rights away
We vote them back in, and believe what they say !
We sing a little louder when it comes time to vote
Approving the traitors who are sinking our boat !
We hear God’s Old Story ridiculed as “passé”
We close up our Bibles, and hide when we pray
Our pastors refrain from messages of truth
Our restrictions and greed demand they dilute !
BUT THE TIME HAS NOW COME WHEN WE WIN OR WE LOSE
Will we sing a little louder? What will we choose?
Will we rise up and answer FREEDOM’S LAST CALL ?
Or will we sing a little louder as America falls ?
