America, What's So Beautiful? Poem by Kathryn Tyler King

America, What's So Beautiful?

Rating: 5.0


America the beautiful or is it?
Seeing men in the streets,
Children hungry and crying,
strangers everywhere we meet.

Lord we have been blessed.
You have greatly prospered us
with homes, jobs and security.
Protected by angels glorious.

Search our hearts even now.
The truth of Your Word expel
darkness, lies and perversion.
Your Gospel with freedom we tell.

We have sinned and still do.
Millions of children killed
by intellectual, blind doctors,
encouraging women's wills.

Our politicians choose wrong.
What's right is believed bad.
Your laws are twisted around
Making God-fearing men mad.

America the beautiful or is it?
Our enemy keeps us busy.
All the technology is speeding up.
I pray that we not be dizzy.

Without God we are in trouble.
Without prayer our work's in vain.
Without Your Word, we're blind
not knowing truth. It's insane.

America the beautiful or is it?
Time is short. It's not too late.
The Lord gave us a mission
to teach, to heal the reprobate.

The Church moves precariously,
afraid of speaking the truth,
afraid of stepping on people's toes.
We need to follow God like Ruth.
