Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the
rule.
For this great nation under
God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites
It violates the Bill of
Rights.
Anytime my head I bow
Becomes a federal matter
now.
The law is specific; the law
is
precise.
Praying out loud is no longer nice.
Praying aloud in a public hall
Upsets those who believe in nothing
at
all.
In silence alone we can meditate
And if God should get the
credit-great!
They are bringing their
guns; I don't
dare bring my Bible, To do
so, might
make me liable.
So, now Oh Lord,
This plea I make;
Should I be shot in school,
My soul please take.
