Will It Learn Us A Lesson

Is the tragedy at Newtown telling us something
We know God loved every child that was lost
Perhaps He allowed this loss of the little children
For the sins of an evil world, they paid the cost

A senseless act of a deranged animal some think
In a way I guess what they are saying might be right
It might be God is angry the way our country is doing
He might be punishing us with this dreadful sight

America will this wake you up or will you again forget
It was He that made this country what it was long ago
It was the belief in our Lord that our country was born
Our forefathers worshipped God and the country did grow

Today it seems as if evil deeds are happening every day
Where half crazed monsters kill seemly without any reason
Caring not who the victims are or what age they might be
How heart breaking this was, but will it learn us a lesson

I pray to God we will all wake up before it is much too late
Get God back into a country He has blessed through the years
If we continue to forget how He has made us a great country
There will be more of these killings that fill us with bitter tears
