<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< America the Beautiful By Judge Roy Moore

America the Beautiful or so you used to think. Land of the Pilgrims pride, I'm glad they'll never see. Babies piled in dumpsters, Abortion on demand, Oh, sweet land of liberty, your house is on the sand.

Our children wander aimlessly poisoned by cocaine, Choosing to indulge their lusts, when God has said abstain. From sea to shining sea our Nation turns away From the teaching of God's love and a need always to pray.

So many worldly pastors tell lies about our Rock, Saying God is going broke so they can fleece the flock. We've kept God in our temples, how callous we have grown, When earth is but His footstool and Heaven is His throne.

We've voted in a government that's rotting at the core, Appointing Godless judges who throw reason out the door, Too soft to place a killer in a well deserved tomb, But brave enough to kill a baby before he leaves the womb.

You think that God's not angry that our land's a moral slum? How much longer will He wait before His judgment comes? How are we to face our God from whom we cannot hide? What then is left for us to do, but stem the evil tide?

If we who are His children will humbly turn and pray, Seek His holy face and mend our evil way, Then God will hear from Heaven and forgive us of our sins, He'll heal our sickly land and those who live within.

But America the Beautiful if you don't then you will see, A sad but Holy God withdraw His hand from thee.

"The LORD is with you, while ye be with Him; and if ye seek Him, He will be found of you; but if ye forsake Him, He will forsake you." ~ 2 Chronicles 15:2 ~

Judge Moore of Alabama was in the national news for refusing the order of another judge to remove the Ten Commandments from his court room and to stop opening his court with daily prayer.
