My friends
I hear your call for music
And know you love
The tunes – still music
Is not the final solution
But lift lift our souls
While we choose
We choose to be active
Or silent and stand up
Or be rolled over by the fools
Those who feel they are safe in
Their views.  The truth however
Revokes this premise and
The truth will prevail
Who wants to defund the police?
Where, tell me, is the appeal
We release the “peaceful protestors”
And incarcerate innocents
When the truth begins to fester
The deniers run and cry
Cannot believe their eyes
Hold fast to their false beliefs
Causing them nothing but grief
We look at the border and
Then sing a sad song
Illegals are settled in towns
Where no one knows what went wrong
We want a strong leader
Who knows what to do?
But our occupant is weak and fails us
To us he is only a reckless fool

Trying to impact with a nasty situation
Use it to put us to shame
Supposedly showing our indifference
Instead of a Christian response
What are we do?
Hang our heads in shame?
We have no control
Rules are rules and they apply
The same thing happens all the time
Mothers go to serve time in prison
They are separated from their children
You mention the situation
She should have followed the law
What about the other perpetrators
Shouldn’t they obey the law?
You cannot make decisions with your heart
The brain and heart have to be on the same wave
Then you can feel confident about doing the right thing
We are a nation of laws
We have a border being crossed by illegal immigrants
No matter what your persuasion, the law has been broken
The better point to make might be to enforce our laws
Go after the companies hiring illegals and prosecute
In a while there would be no incentive to cross the border
There is a legal way to become a citizen
Everyone knows this and we all come from a background of immigration
It is a difficult situation for the ones in violation
The issue is tossed around like a football
Used for political purposes
Christians and others do help
We are generous in giving aid to the downtrodden
Dictators take much of the aid in many cases
Matters get worse
People starve, children and adults
They die and are separated forever until the hereafter 
Please don’t use the pulpit to admonish
Religious leaders should lead
We should stop playing games
Cancel the United Nations or make it work
Everyone in Africa should have food, water and shelter
Where is the Vatican?  What about their wall?

I listen and hear the bells ring
Wonder if I am doing
The right thing.  I heard
The bell has a crack, but
Then doesn’t everyone
It lets the light come in
We all need light, especially
The light that overcomes
All darkness.  We are all
Sinners saved by Jesus
He died for us and our sins
One the cross at Calvary and
Today rockets light up the skies 
Because evil exists and God has 
A purpose for everyone and
All things, even the enemy and
We do not, cannot understand
A purpose for our weak leader
Slowly taking us to the abyss
Wake up my friends and ring
That bell with the crack, the
Liberty bell and begin your
Prayer and sacrifice to Him
Only then can we survive 
And stand where others fall
Because we heard our call and 
Can remember His resurrection
And promise
