The way things were meant to be!

                     
               Basic Principles


          Our constitution was written many years ago
               The founding Fathers declared it so.
    The laws of Government for the new land would be 
 Based upon the “Ten Commandments” for all to see.

    These basic principles would be taught in schools,
Where future generations would learn the Golden Rule
   Writing, Arithmetic, and the Bible would be read,
Right from wrong would be taught and prayers said.

     In courts across the land, Judges made the call,
         On the written word that was fair to all.
        A sentence of death for the accused crime;
   “Give your life to God while there is still time!”

    It is no wonder our children are confused today,
  The constitution’s meaning has changed some say.
 There is crime and destruction everywhere we look.
 Our Nation is no longer based on “The Good Book.” 

  It is very plain to see that changes are being made
     To the foundation that was so carefully laid
 No peace can be found where there is moral decay
Without the Basic Principles, there is no hope for today!
