Where God Is

         There was a little boy,
         On the week's first day,
         Coming home from school
         And wandering on the way.

         He scuffed his shoes into the grass
         And found a caterpillar.
         He found a fluffy milkweed pod
         And blew out the filler.

         A bird's nest in a tree above,
         So wisely placed on high
         Was just another wonder
         That caught his eye.

         A neighbor watched his crooked course
         And hailed him from the lawn.
         He asked him where he'd been that day
         And what was going on.

 

         "I've been to Sunday School," he said
         as he turned a piece of sod,
         and picking up a worm, he smiled,
         "I've learned a lot from God!"

         "That's a fine way," the neighbor said,
         "For a boy to spend his time.
         "Now if you can tell me where God is,
         I'll give you a brand new dime."


         Quick as a flash the answer came,
         The boy said without complaint,
         "I'll give you a dollar, Mister,
         If you can tell me where God ain't!"

Mary's Lamb

Mary had a little Lamb,

His fleece was white as snow.

And everywhere that Mary went,

The Lamb was sure to go.

He followed her to school each day,

T'wasn't even in the rule.

It made the children laugh and play,

To have a Lamb at school.

And then the rules all changed one day,

Illegal it became;

To bring the Lamb of God to school,

Or even speak His Name!

Every day got worse and worse,

And days turned into years.

Instead of hearing children laugh,

We heard gun shots and tears.

What must we do to stop the crime,

That's in our schools today?

Let's let the Lamb come back to school,

And teach our kids to pray!
