House on the Sand
It looks as if our great country
Is about to sink in dark despair.
But some people feel the democrats
Will bring the answers to our prayer.
Some complain the law's too forceful;
Police brutality is what they blame.
But others say the law's too lenient;
The lack of enforcement is a shame.
Some dare say, we're too religious;
Our lust and passion too restrained,
And others hate the vile corruption,
And want our moral laws retained.
But all agree we have a problem;
Crime and violence sweeps our land.
Governments and kingdoms falling,
As did the house built on the sand.
Could our philosophy be our trouble?
Have misplaced values brought us shame?
So maybe we should try the principles
Taught by Yasha when He came.
