Lord’s Prayer
By a 15-year-old school kid
who got an A+ for this entry
The Lord’s Prayer is not allowed in most Â
U.S. Public schools any more. Â
A kid in Minnesota, wrote the followingÂ
NEW School Prayer:-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now I sit me down in school Â
Where praying is against the rule Â
For this great nation under God Â
Finds mention of Him very odd. Â
 Â
If scripture now the class recites, Â
It violates the Bill of Rights. Â
And anytime my head I bow Â
Becomes a Federal matter now. Â
 Â
Our hair can be purple, orange or green, Â
That’s no offense; it’s a freedom scene.. Â
The law is specific, the law is precise. Â
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. Â
 Â
For praying in a public hall Â
Might offend someone with no faith at all.. Â
In silence alone we must meditate, Â
God’s name is prohibited by the State..
We’re allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, Â
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks…Â Â
They’ve outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. Â
To quote the Good Book makes me liable. Â
 Â
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen, Â
And the ‘unwed daddy,’ our Senior King. Â
It’s ‘inappropriate’ to teach right from wrong, Â
We’re taught that such ‘judgments’ do not belong.. Â
 Â
We can get our condoms and birth controls, Â
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles…Â Â
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed, Â
No word of God must reach this crowd. Â
 Â
It’s scary here I must confess, Â
When chaos reigns the school’s a mess. Â
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:Â Â
Should I be shot; My soul please take! Â
                                                          Amen  Â
