Founders' Dream Follow Through

Two-Hundred and Thirty-eight years ago today

They signed their names and history was on its way

To be forever set anew

upon a pathway none yet "knew".

And for the Founders of America fair --

So promising, so hopeful: a dream not yet dared --

Determined to give us Guiding Light,

They turned to GOD to guide us right

And when in prayer they bent their knee,

To seek His wisdom, His guidance be

The way to govern our land so fair

They turned to Providence, Who is always there.

And so a Tribute, to them and to thee

For upon a Founder's wise, true plea,

"If you can keep her", said he to she,

The quest remains, but with uncertainty...

The question that stands before us now

Is for those stripes to whom do we bow?

Do we take orders, forgetting wrong and right?

Or do we for our Republic fight?

Do we have tyrant or monarchy?

Or is freedom FOUNDERS' tribute TO THEE?

Consider now whom you'll obey

If one dark night the orders say:

"Fire upon your fellow man,

Your neighbor, brother, family, friend.

And do not think for yourself

'Tis president's orders at threat to self

You'll obey or be subject to

Dishonor, judgment, court martial, too."

And when that order comes will you

Obey the order, or Founders' Dream Follow Through?
